Centre's Third Years achieve near-perfection in newswriting results


By SarahLonsdale - Posted on 06 July 2011

Over 90 per cent of  the Centre for Journalism's third years - our first cohort of students - have now passed the notoriously difficult NCTJ newswriting exam. Fourteen out of the fifteen students have now passed, a stunning level of achievement for the Centre. In addition, six out of eight of our first year of Postgrads - 75 per cent - passed the new Diploma Reporting exam at the first attempt. We wish all our leavers well as they move into the world of work, and congratulations on your success here.

...I think we should congratulate the second/third years who have managed to pass the NCTJ newswriting exam (and there's a whole year for that to turn into a 100% pass rate).
