Chris attended Hymers College from 2004-2014. Having gained the necessary grades in his A levels he attended The University of Birmingham to study an Integrated Masters in Mechanical Engineering with a year in Industry. He successfully completed this, achieving a 1st class Mech Eng degree. On 17th Dec 2021, he passed out at Britannia Royal Naval College in Dartmouth as an Aeronautical Engineering Naval Officer, with Prince Charles attending as the College’s guest of honour.

We remain grateful for the time Chris spent at Hymers where he learnt the merit of hard work and self-discipline, which I am sure has helped him in achieving the things he has so far.
