Cllr Wyn Jones, cabinet member for lifelong learning and Geraint James, Conwy’s chief education officer, issued a joint statement.
“These excellent results have been achieved as a result of hard work and dedication by the students themselves together with the committed and professional support of their teachers. We congratulate them all and wish all students every success in their future careers.
“We also acknowledge and celebrate the achievement of our students in other examinations, which include AS examinations, vocational courses and the Welsh Baccalaureate, although an authority analysis of these results is not yet available.”
