TWO Wharfedale students have stars in their eyes as they celebrates achieving 10 A*s at GCSE.

Snigdha Mahajan, of Bramhope, and Ripudaman Singh, of Otley, both students at The Grammar School at Leeds (GSAL) learned of their clean sweep today.

A delighted Snigdha said: “I was speechless. I had to stare at the results for a long time before I could believe my eyes. This has made my summer.”

They were among 18 GSAL students from the Wharfedale area celebrating their achievements.

Others include: Ben Wyard from Pool-in-Wharfedale, who studied astronomy in his spare time at school to complete 11 GCSEs, gaining six A*s, four As and a B; Thomas Morgan from Otley with five A*s and five As; and Harrison Emmett-Lee from Horsforth with five A*s, three As and two Bs.

Sixteen students at GSAL have swept the board with 10 A* passes at GCSE.

In all, students notched up 654 passes at A* which amounts to 36 per cent of grades achieved at GSAL.

The school has pulled off outstanding results in core subjects at A* and A with 77 per cent in mathematics, 67 per cent in English literature, 60 per cent in English language, 71 per cent in religious studies and 69 per cent in the double science award.

Principal Sue Woodroofe said: “I could not be more proud of this year’s GCSE cohort. These results testify to the outstanding achievements of a wonderful group of year 11 students and promise much for their A-level futures.

“I am grateful to staff and parents whose support for, and encouragement of, the children has been first class.”
