Currently reading Medicine at the University of Leeds, Rumaysah distinguished herself at Bridgewater School through both her academic excellence and her commitment to wider school life. Joining in Year 7, she became a respected role model and went on to hold a number of leadership positions, including leading the Debating Team and the school’s Badminton Club. She was also the recipient of a prestigious CREST Award from the British Science Association in recognition of her scientific endeavour. In Sixth Form, Rumaysah was appointed Deputy Head Girl as part of the Leadership Team. She completed her Bridgewater journey with three A Levels, in Biology (A*), Mathematics (A) and Chemistry (B).

“My name is Rumaysah Khan and I was at Bridgewater for seven years. At GCSE, I studied Maths, English, Statistics, History, Business Studies, French, Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

At Level I focused my studies on Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics, and I chose to pursue a career in Medicine through the University of Leeds.

The seven years I spent at Bridgewater were honestly so amazing. The amount of support that I received from my teachers was incredible, they really go above and beyond for their students. During my time in Sixth Form, the teachers really supported me throughout my university application process, from helping me to draft my personal statement to preparing for medical school interviews.

I really cannot thank them enough.”
