A schoolboy who has devoted much of his life looking after his disabled mum in a council flat is heading for Eton after being awarded an £80,000 scholarship.
Ilyan Benamor, 15, will rub shoulders with the elite at the world’s most famous school which counts Princes’ William and Harry and PM Boris Johnson among its many illustrious alumni.
To win the coveted place, Ilyan went through a gruelling three-day assessment at the Berkshire school, which included three entrance exams and multiple interviews.
