Tom Daley Strikes Gold In A Level Results After Winning Olympic Bronze

Not content with achieving his Olympic dream of winning a medal at the London Games, Tom Daley has proved he's also pretty smart by achieving three A grades in his A and AS levels.

The poster boy of Team GB tweeted on Thursday morning that he had got one A* grade and one A grade at A level, as well as an A grade at AS level.

"I got an A in Spanish! Overall I have A* photography(A2), A spanish(A2) and A maths(AS) :) thanks 2 @PlymouthColleg1 :D," he said.

Daley also shared a picture of his Spanish results with his one and a half million Twitter followers:

The 18-year-old wished his fellow students good luck as thousands across the country nervously peeled open their results letters.

In total, 26.6% of the exams were given an A or A*, down from 27% in 2011 - a record drop of 0.4%.
