One in four students managed to achieve three or more A* or A grades in their A-levels.

Sarah Kerr-Dineen, school warden, said: “Across the board there are stories of individuals who have performed beyond what they thought possible, as a result of hard work and determination”.

About 80 percent of the students achieved A* to B grades with seven of the school’s students taking up a place at either Oxford or Cambridge.

“These are deservedly good results for a great group of students, all of whom can look confidently ahead to the next stage of their lives” she added.

Aaran Param managed to rack up four A* grades and is now going to study economics at Trinity College, Cambridge.

Aaran said: ““I am very happy, although I was a little confused when I opened my results slip – once I had all of the grades explained to me, I felt great!”

Jonathan Mitchell, director of teaching at the school in College Place, Snaresbrook, said: “We couldn’t be more proud of our students and colleagues for all their hard work.”
