How did you decide which subjects to study?
I chose History and English as I really enjoyed studying them at school, and Law because that’s what I’d like to do as a Career. Taking Law A Level has helped deepen my understanding of the subject.
Tell us about any College activities you’ve been involved in outside lessons
I joined the College Netball Team in the Lower Sixth, which was a great way to meet more people. I’m also a Student Mentor which means I’ve been involved in supporting other students around College and helping out at events. I’ve met lots of new people through this too.
What do you like most about being a student at Reigate College?
I like the community feel, which I’ve become even more aware of as a Student Mentor. I also love the independence we have, and the feeling of responsibility and confidence this has given me.
What do you think makes Reigate College a good place to be a student?
Being at College has made me understand the importance of working hard, and setting goals so as to work towards the future I want. I’m much more focused on studying and have got much better at time-keeping. We’re really pushed to work to the best of our ability and encouraged to feel excited about moving on the next chapter of our lives.
What are your plans for the future?
I plan to study Law at the University of Southampton. My ambition is to become a practicing Solicitor and work at a top law firm.
