Toni鈥檚 Double Celebration
Toni Warnes will be enjoying double celebrations when she graduates from the University of 海角直播 today. Not only has she achieved a First Class BSc (Hons) degree from the School of Computing and Mathematics, but will also be awarded a prize from the Institute of Mathematics and Applications, for what was termed 'an outstanding performance on the final year'.
Toni, 22, from Roseberry Mount, Guisborough, said: 鈥淚 am thrilled that I am receiving this award and am pleased that all the hard work I put into my Mathematics degree has been recognised. I was academically focussed throughout, achieving consistently good marks over four years.鈥�
After leaving Bydales school in Marske, Toni went to Prior Pursglove Sixth form in Guisborough where she obtained four good A levels. Her grade A in maths helped influence her decision to study the subject and become a maths teacher. She is currently training to become a secondary school teacher, which has always been her ambition and she hopes to take up a teaching post in the local area.
Toni also completed a year鈥檚 placement with ICI Wilton鈥檚 Maths and Statistics Department. This primarily involved computer programming. Toni said: 鈥淭his was a great learning opportunity where I could use my initiative.鈥�
Toni said: 鈥淢y mum and dad, Shirley and Peter are extremely proud of my achievements, particularly as I am the first member of the family to obtain a degree.鈥�
