Richard Rose Central Academy

Our Alumnus of the month is Bethanie Robinson, who left Central Academy in 2020. Since leaving Central Academy, Bethanie completed a medical degree (MBChB), which took five years to complete. When at school, Bethanie decided she wanted to complete a degree and further education in psychology, but through some inspiration from her psychology teacher, she started looking into careers in psychiatry. In order to become a psychiatrist (a doctor specialising in mental illness), Bethanie first had to complete a medical degree and gain experience in the physical illnesses. After achieving two A*s and an A in Psychology, Biology and Chemistry, Bethanie was accepted onto a medical degree at the University of Sunderland.

Our Alumnus of the month is Mia Abbot, who left Central Academy in 2014.

Outside of work, she enjoys reading, going to concerts, and walking in the Peak District with friends.
