A record year of GCSE results at Magdalen College School. A*s have been awarded to 76.49% of the year-group – a record. 97.3% of the year group achieved A* or A. Two boys – Huw Charles and Stefan Lacny – achieved 11 A*s each. Most astonishing of all Alex Polywka, 16, who’s battling a deadly tumour scores top GCSEs at Magdalen college School despite brain surgery and chemotherapy.

See all my photos of the Magdalen College School GCSE results here and photos of this year’s A Level results at MCS here.
