For a non-selective state school which only opened in the 1960s, Tapton School in Sheffield boasts a remarkable number of famous former pupils.
A multiple Olympic champion, TV stars, the bassist from one of the most successful rock bands in history are among the notable alumni from the ‘outstanding’ secondary school on Darwin Lane, in Crosspool.
Below are some of the biggest celebrities who grew up in Sheffield and attended Tapton School before finding fame.

The highly-decorated freestyle skier, who learned to ski at Sheffield's much-missed Ski Village, attended Tapton School. During a glittering career, he has won gold at the Freestyle World Ski Championships and the Winter X Games, and narrowly missed out on the medals at the 2018 Winter Olympics, finishing fourth in the slopestyle competition. | Tom Pennington/Getty Images Photo: Tom Pennington/Getty Images
