I know first-hand how valuable and transformative the educational experience at Sevenoaks School can be. In 2019, I was offered a fully funded Sixth Form place through financial support, an opportunity I never imagined possible.
Vicky’s story is testament to the power of financial support, not just in changing individual lives but also in strengthening our school’s commitment to inclusion, opportunity and excellence, to create a better and more peaceful world.
“Those two years transformed my life, opening doors to new academic ideas, lifelong friendships and ambitions that shaped my future.
Grateful for the opportunities I received, I decided to give back by running a half marathon for the Sevenoaks School Foundation. In April, I helped raise over £12,000 to give more students like me access to the same life-changing, world-class education through financial support. I want to help someone from my background access the same incredible experience I did.
I have just graduated from the University of Manchester, and reflecting on my time at Sevenoaks I realise how grateful I am to have had the chance to study in such a unique environment. It was where I finally felt like I could flourish and achieve my full potential.”
