Shortly before the end of the Summer term, the Art department was delighted to welcome Jess Campbell back into school.

After leaving SGS Jess went on to study at Falmouth University where she graduated with a degree in Fine Art.

She subsequently decided to pursue a career in teaching and has spent the last year working towards her Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE), successfully graduating in June.

Head of Art Mr Richard Davies said: “It was lovely to have Jess return to the department, particularly as she was able to offer our current A-level students valuable advice based on her university experience and the opportunities that exist within the creative industries.”
