Cambridge Chemistry Challenge

Poppy Cruise, Samantha Innocent, Nikita Lad and Hannah Cole are pictured (top) with the Silver Awards they received for successfully taking part in the Cambridge Chemistry Challenge. This is a project set by Cambridge University every year to challenge students to answer questions on topics that are beyond the scope of the A Level specification.
Future Scientists and Future Medics students (pictured bottom) have received awards for the CREST projects which they complete as part of their elective courses. They each chose a topic to research related to their careers plans for the future or on particular interests in science. Only a few of those receiving certificates are pictured.

I had a great experience at SJR. I met a lovely bunch of people and made so many friends. I wouldn’t have achieved the grades I did without the tutor advice and support. Thank you.
