From my middle school years I've looked to become involved with moral reasoning, especially regarding what is happening in our world today, in the news, newspapers, magazines.

My ability to dedicate myself in discussions confidently has proved useful in giving me the confidence to persuasively present arguments especially in A-level business studies.

My educational experiences have proved of great use to me from a position in the sixth form council that allowed me to express my views and opinions relating to the future of my college to organising charitable events. These responsibilities have helped me mature and gain the recognition from fellow colleagues.

My lower school tutoring enrichment has developed my communicative skills by integrating skills gained from A-level business in order to help younger pupils develop individually, set targets and become successful learners in their subjects.

During my time at Giggleswick, I took up many interests and hobbies such as CCF (combined cadet force) which developed my leadership skills. During my time in the CCF I found myself drawn to the RAF division, taking part in flying over Liverpool and Blackpool in a tutor pilot plane. I also took part in other divisional camps such as camp Barry Buden, a CCF camp in Scotland.

This in particular forced me to adapt to new surroundings, meet new people, and most definitely taught me self-discipline which will prove greatly important for me in all aspects of my future life.

With great positions of responsibilities in the sixth form at Shelley College, I've collectively, with fellow colleagues raised 400 pounds for the Pakistani flood appeal, which I feel shows my integrity for current world issues and my persistence to help others.

I always ask myself what I could do if given the chance and time to do a degree in law. I understand and appreciate that a degree carries more value than just an achievement, it is a life decision.
