Hannah, who is at Portsmouth High School, said: ‘My dad passed away last year when I was right in the middle of my GCSE courses. If he had been here today he would have been so proud of my grades.’
Mum, Juliet Woods, added: ‘I am so proud of Hannah. She has had such a tough year and has done really well.’

Hide AdHannah was so terrified about opening her results that she wanted to go outside on her own.
‘I was particularly worried about maths and the sciences and it was such a relief to see how well I had done. I am now going to study maths, further maths and physics at A-level before going on to university,’ said Hannah.
