Scarlett Mew Jensen and Maria Papworth also combined for 3m Synchro gold as the British junior team racked up 13 medals at the competition in Bourg-en-Bresse.

Cutmore’s victory came in the Group B 3m Springboard as the Luton diver led home a British one-two with Southend’s Tyler Humphreys.

Cutmore, who was named England Programmes diver of the year at the 2016 ASA Aquatics Awards, scored 432.50 for his nine dives. Humphreys was the only other diver in the field to break 400 points on 418.30.

The Southend teenager also picked up bronze in the 1m event, scoring 355.15 as France’s Jules Bouyer took gold on 364.70.
