What is the most challenging thing you have achieved so far?
I think getting this role, it was challenging to push myself to speak in-front of so many people, and have the courage to apply in the first place. It was a tough process because it was very full on, but it was worth it 100%. Oh and getting through GCSE period is a very close second.
Why did you want to become a Prefect?
I wanted to become a prefect because I don’t want any student to ever feel as though they are alone, have no one to go to, or are not being heard. I also wanted to ensure that in my last year at Invicta, I could do all I can to make sure that the students to follow have the best experience.
What are your plans when you leave Invicta?
I’m hoping to go to university or take a degree apprenticeship to gain a Law degree, and go on to practice law later in life. Preferably somewhere aborad like New York or Australia.
And, finally, what special memories do you have of your time, so far, at Invicta?
Where to start, so many moments stick out to me. Going to Norfolk at the end of Year 8 with my friends, going to Prom in Year 11, hearing the examiner say “pens down” after our final GCSE, starting Sixth Form, finding out I had been appointed Senior Prefect, and, finally, I have to mention Year 11 chemistry lessons as they were always a favourite!
