Inspiring Teachers: All of my Sixth Form teachers were great and very supportive throughout the long and competitive medicine application process. Notably Miss Fellowes-Freeman who took the time to help me prepare for the medical admissions tests. Since Leaving Waingels: I've been studying medicine at St Andrews University. It mainly comprises of clinical skills like taking blood pressure, dissecting cadavers and learning how to communicate like a doctor. Waingels Memory: The last day of school was a memorable one, despite being unexpectedly early, it was fun to spend time with friends and teachers.

Waingels Memory: The ski trip was definitely the best trip I've ever been on, I loved every second of it. Inspiring Teachers: Ms Rowley was really helpful with my decision making, I also spoke to the Careers Adviser who pointed me in the right direction. Since Leaving Waingels: I am studying for a Bachelors Degree with Honours in Paramedic Science at the University of Northampton. Future Goals: To spend most of my life on the road as a Paramedic in the Ambulance Service.

Type of Waingels Student: Hard working. I always wanted to do well, even now I hate disappointing people and am a rule follower. I wasn't overly popular but I was friendly to everyone in my year (possibly because I was always willing to help people in lessons?) Since Leaving Waingels: I'm studying History (BA) at the University of Sussex. Final Message to Waingels Students: "Don't ever let anyone belittle your feelings when you're struggling, school can be tough. Your school and sixth form years help to define who you are as a person. You'll change so much over your time at Waingels, you go in as a child and come out an adult. There will undoubtably be tears and fallings out but hold your friends close, you might be like me and find a group of people that will stay with you for life. Enjoy these years, make them years that you will be proud to look back on."
