His achievements mean he has been invited to the UK Mathematics Trust Olympiad Training Camp over the summer holidays, as one of the most able young mathematicians in the country.

Headteacher Dr Paul Bell said:

“To say that Thomas is only just about to start Year 10 is amazing. We are really proud of what he has achieved and glad that we could support him to fulfil his desire to excel. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for Thomas.”

Top achievers in year 13 at the school were Victoria Daramy-Williams, Hannah Bainbridge, Rachel Brown and Anna Cartledge, who were thrilled to gain three A* grades in their A Level results.

Victoria will go on to study natural sciences at Cambridge University, Hannah will study drama and theatre arts at the University of Birmingham, Rachel will study chemistry at the University of York and Anna is off to the University of Sheffield to study medicine.
