GIGGLESWICK School student Carolina Mondragon-Bayarri has been awarded a prestigious Arkwright Engineering Scholarship.
The scholarships support young people from across the UK who have the potential to be future leaders in engineering and design.
During their sixth form studies, scholars receive £600 to support their technical courses and have access to a range of opportunities to learn more about engineering, such as mentoring and company visits.
Carolina, who is in her third year at Giggleswick, received her scholarship at a ceremony hosted by the Institution of Engineering & Technology in Glasgow.
