Amajot Hayer achieved an A* in Maths and As in Chemistry and Physics. He is going now on to study Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College London. He said: “I am very happy about my results and feel 10/10. I am hoping to become a mechanical engineer after I complete my course as I have always been passionate about cars and fascinated to learn the science behind how things work. I also enjoyed Maths at A Level due to the logical and problem solving elements. During my time at Kettering Science Academy my highlights would definitely be A level results day and the residential to Kenya when we went on a four-week trip to help improve the standard of living for rural communities. My advice to future Sixth Form students would be to make notes and highlight key sections and words. Completing past papers also helped me too.”
