Every single student at West Byford Primary School dressed up to smash the world record for the largest gathering of Harry Potters.

The school has topped the record set in the UK in June of 676 while two weeks students at Wembley Primary stepped up the wizarding war with 826.

But West Byford Primary School kids, staff and parents gathered on Wednesday to break the Guinness world record with a total of 997 Harry Potters in the one place.

It's not official yet with the school now waiting for confirmation from the UK that it met the record requirements.

To qualify students had to wear a white shirt, black pants, spectacles, cloak and Gryffindor tie, carry a wand and have a scar on their forehead.
