Since leaving Hatch End High School, Harry Measure has completed a Law degree at the University of Bristol. Harry is hoping to use this academic platform to find a career in either Law or Finance. Harry says: "for current students, I would encourage them to stay true to what they want to achieve in life and not be swayed by all other voices that may be telling them otherwise, it all works out eventually just enjoy your life!"
Since leaving Jack Measure has gone on to study History at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge. Since starting university, Jack has worked on the Lumina Course which works to make Oxbridge more accessible to state school students. Going to university opened up many different opportunities for Jack and this summer he is looking forward to travelling to Hong Kong to teach English. Jack is looking forward to starting his second year at Cambridge and seeing what the future brings.
Since leaving Hatch End High School in 2016, I studied Accounting & Finance at the University of Kent. University was a huge step up from A-Levels and it was indeed very challenging, but at the end it truly felt rewarding. Since graduating, my first job was in the Real Estate industry, working as an in-house accountant. I was able to apply my new knowledge from university into real-life concepts and situations. This also gave me an idea of where I would like to progress in my career, which brought me to recently moving to an Accounting Practice. And I am about to start my studies and training to become a Chartered Accountant. In the future, my goal is to become a fully qualified under ICAEW and specialise in either audit or tax. My advice to current students would be to always keep a positive mindset and to keep trying no matter what obstacles you may face. Your end goal will always be reached, but sometimes we do have to go through the downs before we get to enjoy the ups. And also, there is amazing support available always from HEHS staff for all aspects, so I would definitely encourage everyone to utilise their help. I cannot be grateful enough to have studied here, as it has brought me where I am today! Radhika Patel, Class of 2016

Former Hatch End High School Student Javid Basharat has been awarded a contract to fight in the prestigious UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship). Javid, 26, defeated Israeli fighter Oron Kahlon at the Dana White Contender Series in Las Vegas to earn his contract. Javid, who is currently unbeaten in 11 fights, has a younger brother Farid, (also attended Hatch End High School) who is also a promising fighter and is currently unbeaten in 7 fights. Javid will now attempt to climb up the rankings and hopefully be in a position to fight for a world title.
Rajan Modha, Class of 2014, was one of nine DofE (Duke of Edinburgh) Gold Award holders who lined the steps of Westminster Abbey for Prince Philip’s Memorial Service. Rajan first started on the DofE scheme back in 2009 and completed it in 2017, after cycling more than 180miles through the Gambia in Africa over the course of four days to gain his gold award. Whilst in Africa, Rajan met with dozens of other young people from around the world who were also doing the DofE. Rajan said, ‘The common ground was the DofE. It is just amazing how different countries and cultures are brought together by this one scheme,’ he said. Rajan, who now works as a freelance climbing coach and for IT firm Oracle, said he was presented with his Gold Award by Prince Edward. ‘It was an honour to meet Prince Edward. When you complete your gold award it is the pinnacle moment. It just goes to show that if you stay consistent and follow it all the way through, you are rewarded. It was a surreal moment,’ he said. He added that the DofE ‘unlocked’ his ‘hidden passion’ for mountaineering and allowed him to find himself as an individual.
