Arsenal Ladies footballer Carla Humphrey proved she is also a star in the classroom when she received her A-level results at Hinchingbrooke school today.
The 18-year-old is used to playing in front of crowds of fans but today (Thursday) she was picking up her A-level results with her friends. Completing her time at the school Carla received an A in Psychology and B in Maths.
She said: “It is amazing, I can’t quite believe the results I have achieved – I am over the moon.”
During her exams Carla was away playing and training with the team so found herself having to catch up.
“I was away for two months so I missed a lot of school which meant I had to teach myself a lot of the courses.”
Carla will now be concentrating on her football career but she isn’t ruling out the possibility of going to university in the future.
