Adam scores top marks in the UK for taxing exam

Adam scored the highest test score in the country

Former Bournemouth & Poole College student Adam Grannell is flying high after winning the highest student honour for trainees in Inheritance Tax and Trusts.

Adam Grannell, 22, from Bransgore, sat the challenging exam last November and triumphed with the highest test score in the country.

“It’s a really remarkable achievement,” said MD Warren Munson, of the Poole-based Business and Tax Advisory company Inspire, which is where Adam works full-time.

“It’s a very tough exam but to come out with the highest score in the UK shows how dedicated and focussed Adam is on his work. He has made us proud.”

Said Adam: “People think taxation, with its constant number crunching and intricate rules and regulations is rather dull but I can assure anyone it is fascinating . I must say, the support I’ve had from the people at Inspire and also my college tutors has been essential, and thanks go out to them all.”

Adam was recently a guest at the Association of Tax Technicians (ATT) council’s annual lunch. The ATT makes the award of the Kimmer Medal in the Inheritance Tax and Trusts category.
