A Liphook student is top of the class after getting a national first on a record-breaking GCSE results day at Bohunt School.

Their class of 2024 have shown “incredible grit, resilience and determination” to give the school its best ever set of results since opening.

More than 90 per cent of students passed maths and English while the pass rate was a perfect 100 per cent in eight subjects.

The rate was above 90 per cent in 16 subjects while a fifth of all grades recorded were either an 8 or 9.

Lana and Harry Roberts were among the star performers as the siblings racked up an incredible 19 grade 9s with the latter scoring 239 out of 240 in his three maths papers.

There was a further surprise in Lana’s envelope as she received a certificate for achieving the highest mark for GCSE Psychology in England and Wales.

Luca Wilson, from Beacon Hill, felt revision paid off after racking up ten 9s but still admitted to feeling nervous when collecting his envelope.

He said: “I did start revision early on but I love learning so I was really invested in my subjects – they were still ridiculously stressful but there wasn’t anything I didn’t feel prepared for.”

A relieved Olive Keeley also got nine top grades and deserves a big hand for her success in Psychology. She made a mockery of her predicted 6 grade with a 9, although filing 20 pages in a two-hour exam may have helped.

Headteacher Neil Strowger said he was “stunned into silence” by the school’s “greatest set of results” before applauding students and staff for their hard work, commitment and dedication.

“We are very, very proud of each and every one of them,” said Randall Jull, Head of School, with record numbers enrolling in their Sixth Form.
