Summary
Dedicated student, studying towards International A-levels, and picking up skills that will be useful when in University. I am very dedicated towards anything I set my mind to. For example, I am a Competitive Athlete representing Great Britain in Internationals and went with the team to Nations Cup in Le Mains, France in 2023, where we obtained second place. This helps me with my time management, organisation and adaptability skills which will be useful in the future. In school achievements I was awarded with the roll of Head Girl, I have also been football and basketball team captain and represented my school Nationally in various sports. This helped me expand my leadership and communication skills with various people of many different nationalities and cultures.
