A student from Ipswich is celebrating after achieving the highest A Level grade in the country for law.
Eighteen-year-old Abiola Abidoye studied maths, further maths, law and physics at One Sixth Form College, registering A* in all four subjects.
Despite not being his “strong suit”, he got 224 out of 240 across three papers.

He said: “I am really pleased.
“I have maths and physics which are my strong suit, I did law because it’s my passion.
“I’m very passionate about different types of law, even some that we didn’t do like human rights, just any law I can get myself into, so it was just a fun lesson I wanted to do, I wasn’t expecting to do so well in there.
“I was very surprised when I found out I was best in the country at Law for A Levels because again, it’s not my strong suit.
“I saw that result before my others, so I was already nervous waiting for them but then that came through.
“I put in an immense amount of work into this. I was staying up to ungodly hours for my studying.
“I put a lot of pressure on myself to try and achieve it, I am not sure if I will do it again because it was very difficult but I am pretty happy.
“The teachers at One Sixth Form College were wonderful and helped me a lot.”
Abiola will be going to study maths next and then, in the future, hopes to do something with banking or finance.
