Hide AdCalum, 16, achieved three A* grades, five A grades and 1 B grade.
He said: “The grades were more or less what I was predicted so I am pretty happy with them.
“I now intend to study for A-Levels at the sixth form here.
“I wasn’t nervous about my results until I went to open the envelope. I told myself that there was nothing I could do about it so tried not to worry.
“I start again on September 7 so I now have a couple of weeks to relax and enjoy myself.”
