I was lucky enough to get a bursary position at Hymers many years ago now. My time at the school really set me up for a great future and really taught me how to push myself and perform at the best of my ability. From sports and music all the way through to academic studies I wouldn’t of been able to receive such a fantastic education at any other school in Hull. The excellent teaching staff would always inspire me and help me with any issues in personal or school life and I will never forget some of the wise words Mr Thompson (Physics, retired 2017) taught me! After school my Hymers education helped me secure places in study programs and career opportunities just by having the name on my CV. People are even more impressed when they learn I was a scholarship student! I couldn’t recommend applying for the bursary scheme anymore as it will be the best school years of your life.
