Five star performance by Williamwood High pupil Eden

The Williamwood High pupil is now setting her sights on a career in engineering and will return for a sixth Year to do Advanced Highers in Maths, Physics and Maths of Mechanics.

The 17-year-old, who plays football for Giffnock Soccer Centre in her spare time, said: “I was so delighted when I saw my results and there was definitely a huge sigh of relief that I had achieved the grades I wanted.

“We had no control over the final exam this year so it was certainly a different experience. I was still nervous waiting for my results to come through but it’s rewarding to know that all the hard work I had put in through the year has been worth it.

“When the exams were first cancelled it seemed like a bit of an anti-climax after all the work that had been done preparing, but now it’s absolutely been worth it.

“After sixth year I hope to go on to university and am looking at engineering and physics courses as I really enjoy the problem solving element of these and it gives me great satisfaction when you solve the problem.”
