Dentistry is the chosen career path for a high-flying student who notched up three A*s in her A-levels.

Pushpa Momin, achieved the grade in maths, biology and chemistry.

The student of Oaks Park High School, Oaks Lane, Newbury Park, is now going to study dentistry at Queen Mary College, London.

Other students left ecstatic by their A-level grades included Andreas Christou, whose two A*s and an A will lead to University College London to read physics.

The number of Oaks Park students achieving top grades was up on last year, with 43 per cent of students getting A* to B.

Headteacher Steve Wilks said: “We are really pleased with these excellent set of results. They are a tribute to the hard work of staff and students.

“I am delighted for Pushpa who fully deserves her outstanding results.”
