Ivy League Future for Georgie Scoot

We are very pleased to announce that Georgie Scoot, Year 13, has been awarded a full scholarship to Princeton University in the US. Located just outside New York City, Princeton is one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the United States, tracing its history to before the American Revolution.

Mr J Gregory, who supported Georgie’s successful application on behalf of TGGS, was naturally delighted. He commented that “Whilst Georgie is an elite national athlete of huge potential, she actually gained this full scholarship because of the breadth of her extra-curricular talent, her long-term academic excellence and her leadership potential. She is an amazingly talented student but an even better person. She will thrive and encourage others to do the same’.

With lots of reasons to be excited for the future, Georgie said she was most looking forward to being able to undertake her sports training alongside her academic work, all in one place.

Headteacher, Ms S Forster, said ‘We are incredibly proud of Georgie and we know she will thrive after she leaves TGGS as she has done while here. We look forward to following her journey as she progresses through her career and we hope to welcome her back to TGGS to share her stories of triumph and success with future TGGS pupils.’
