A THEATRE arts group is celebrating after achieving a 100 per cent examination success.
Members of Stagecoach Darlington, who entered the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art examinations, all gained the higher gradings of distinction and honours.
Twenty six candidates entered examinations in speaking verse and prose, or acting.
The examinations were conducted in West Auckland last Saturday.
Trudy Hindmarch, the principal of Stagecoach Darlington, said: "We would normally expect about a dozen students to want to attempt these exams, but we were amazed to find that more than double that number wanted to enter this year.
"It is a tribute to their teachers, and to the commitment of the students and their parents, that we should have gained such an excellent set of results."
