Daria’s story
Daria joined Wells in Year 10. Now in the Lower Sixth, she is an incredibly driven and ambitious young woman. As well as sitting her GCSEs last summer, she also achieved the Cambridge Advanced Certificate in English (her second language) while at the School.“Although I studied piano and dance in my school in Ukraine, that’s not the main reason I chose to come to Wells. In fact I have focused on my academic subjects since coming here – but I really enjoy being part of a creative environment. I also wanted to improve my English. I am studying subjects I am really passionate about: Business Studies, Economics, and Art as well as an EPQ [Extended Project Qualification] focused on business start ups. I am planning to go to university here in the UK, which truly requires hard work for an international student. A bursary has allowed me to carry on my studies and prepare for my future in a school that supports me to be my best, in an environment that feels like home.”
