Ayan Qureshi, who lives in Walsgrave, was just five years and 11 months when he passed the exam last month and is now the world’s youngest Microsoft Certified Professional.

The Clifford Bridge Primary School pupil finished the online exam, which is normally taken after university, before the allowed time of two hours was up.
