    Alumni Spotlight – Bethany Wood (Class of 2021) 🌟

    From the classrooms of Crossley Heath to the luxury property market of Dubai.... meet Bethany, one of our inspiring recent alumni!

    At school, Bethany achieved some fantastic results in her A-Levels (PE and Mathematics among her favourites!) and was a county-level tennis and cross-country athlete.

    After completing her first year of a BSc in Finance and Investment with a First, Bethany joined Bloomberg Europe on a prestigious degree apprenticeship. She shone in finance, market analysis, and client relationship management – even becoming one of the top performers across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

    Today, Bethany works as a Luxury Real Estate Broker and Property Investment Advisor in Dubai. She’s already had some wonderful successes in her role, and she’s just getting started.

    💬 Bethany’s advice to current students:

    "Take the leap! You’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain. Find something you’re passionate about, become an expert, and then work out how it can make you money."

    We’re so proud to see Bethany making waves internationally and we can’t wait to see what’s next for her career! 🌍
