Three Sixth Form students at St Benedict's School in Ealing have received conditional offers to study at Cambridge University.

Alice Jenkins has an offer to study Medicine at Christ's College; Thomas Gordon has an offer to study Engineering at Pembroke College, and Eleanor Bowden has an offer to read Anglo Saxon, Norse and Celtic at Fitzwilliam College.

The Headmaster at St Benedict's, Andrew Johnson, said: : "This is brilliant news and I offer my warmest congratulations to our successful Cambridge candidates. Not only have they demonstrated huge commitment to their chosen subjects, they have also made an outstanding contribution to the life of the school – as prefects, in the performing arts, and leaders of various activities - and I have no doubt they will all excel at university and beyond.

"I am also proud of our other students who were interviewed, and, indeed, all those who are working hard to gain places at other universities."
