Prior Park student amongst top ten in the country

Local student Anton Kalyuzhnyy was amongst the top ten students according to Edexcel, the UK’s largest awarding body.

Anton sat the GCSE Russian exam earlier this summer at Prior Park College and the results, issued last month, show that out of 1922 candidates, Anton achieved one of the highest overall marks.

Dr Giles Mercer, Headmaster commented “Anton has returned to the College to study for his GCSEs over the next two years and we are very pleased that he was able to achieve an early result in his native language. He has shown a great level of maturity and ability to undertake a difficult exam, I wish him all the best in his future studies.”

Jerry Jarvis, Edexcel’s Managing Director, said: “This is a tremendous achievement and testament to the hard work students put into preparing for their exams. We send our congratulations to Anton.”
