Jess BurkeJess Burke is thrilled with her A level results. Achieving A* in Art, B in English Literature and B in History means that she has secured her first choice place at Leeds University to study English Literature and History.

Firstly however, she is heading to Texas to fulfil her dream of taking a gap year and working abroad. The 18-year-old from Billingham, and former Macmillan Academy student, will be doing an internship working in a church with a youth group.

Speaking of her results she says: “I’m so happy I have got into uni, it means I can go to Texas and enjoy that experience knowing that I have my university days to look forward to at the end of it.”

Jess loved her time at SRC Bede and says that she enjoyed the subjects she studied and support from her teachers.
