< ERMYSTED'S Grammar School produced a strong set of results - with 46 per cent of the grades being either A or A*.

Headteacher Graham Hamilton said: "This is an impressive set of results for the boys.

"They are entering an extremely competitive world and I hope Ermysted's has not only helped them achieve some outstanding results, but also equipped them with the skills and attributes to cope with the challenges of the future."

Among those celebrating are the five students pictured.
