STUDENT STORIES

Greta Munishi, Former Head Girl (2021/22) Greta spoke about the importance of community at the Academy and how she always wanted to help other students: “During the years I was at The UCL Academy, I witnessed students have more ownership of their school community and of their learning. As Head Girl, I wanted to help strengthen student voices, praise students achievements and help push those who couldn’t do that to their highest potential to do better. I never turned down an opportunity to help and support my peers in vocalising their needs and requirements. As someone who constantly asks people if they need any help, as someone who always has their arms open to everyone, as someone who wants to be successful in life”.
