Jade Cole | Rising tennis star

As a tennis player, I was looking for a school that would be flexible to help me achieve my goals in tennis. A friend then recommended me to join King’s InterHigh, and ever since then I loved it. Compared to mainstream school, the flexibility is amazing. I can always go back to lessons I have missed and the teachers extremely supportive.

The type of learning suites my lifestyle compared to traditional schooling. Reflecting on all my success, I can see how King’s InterHigh has played a big role in that. A fundamental for me will always be education as I know how big of an impact that can be in life in general, and finding an easier more accessible way to that couldn’t have been better. I travel a lot for tennis tournaments, so just having my education on a laptop is great.

I have made a couple friends while being at King’s InterHigh but what I would truly encourage to other people is to just be out there, show your personality and ask as many questions as possible. It will really help you in everything really. Make the most of your free time doing as many things as possible and join clubs to be with people that are interested in the same things you are.

That there are plenty resources for you to use and plenty of quizzes on the subjects to test your understanding. It’s a very independent style of studying and a very chilled environment, which I love.

I love acting/drama and badminton, which are two completely different things, but I really enjoy them. I also read a lot because it’s like I’m in my own little world, which I love. I also love to watch movies and shows and play a lot of tennis.
