Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain
Like Lamps, the Ox is also the son of a former pro footballer and attended St John’s School in Southsea. The Gunners winger has ten GCSEs and nearly took his A-Levels before football became a priority. ‘I did the football and his mum [Wendie, a physiotherapist] did the education,’ revealed his father Mark Chamerlain. ‘Football won out.’
Victor Moses
Chelsea winger Moses, 22, attended fee-paying Whitgift while at the Crystal Palace academy. To be fair, Moses isn’t particularly posh because Palace recommended he attend the school in Croydon, and Moses seems to have concentrated more on football than his studies.
