I would love to say that my career and the educational path are the stuff of fairy tales, like Cinderella and her glass slipper, the end! However, life isn’t as easy as that and it involves a lot of setbacks and rejections. I know at times I’ve felt so defeated and worthless, it’s really knocked me for six - I’ve felt unconfident and I didn’t believe in myself. Simon Cowell’s words, “It’s a no from me!” may sound comical, but to be honest, I’d gotten so used to that response that a “yes” response still takes me by surprise!

The Arden Reading Society is a student-led extracurricular group which meets to discuss a new book every three weeks.  

The Reading Society meets on alternate Wednesdays and Thursdays at 7pm (BST) via Zoom to discuss everything from classic fiction to topical nonfiction, poetry to plays.
