STUDENT INFORMATION
Name of the student:Country:Sport:SCHOOL INFORMATION
Name of the School:CASE STUDY
The Context:- With fencing I have the possibility to bond with others, especially during national competitions and I meet many other young European Fencers.
- My high school is not quite suitable for fencers but it allowed me to join the CREFED (fencing regional training center) thanks to a flex time schedule. Without the cooperation of my school, I never would have been able to serenely continue my studies and a high-level sport.
- I think sporting activities are important and should be more encouraged, outside school.
Balancing Sport and Education:- I study 35 hours a week.
- I represent my high school during UGSEL competitions (sport federation of the Catholic Education). I arrived second last year.
- I can reconcile my studies and fencing, as I said, mostly thanks to the schedule made by the school.
- As I am dyslexic, my years in middle school were not easy, this is why I decided to choose a professional branch (carpentry).
-I think I found a good balance between my sport and my studies. I could do better in school if I reduced the hours of fencing practice but I cannot do less sport.
Future Perspectives:- Concerning fencing, I would like to continue the European competitions to then have an access to thye international ones and prepare for the Olympic Games of 2020.
- I hope I could join the INSEP and learn to be a fencing instructor.
- If I can't do the Olympic Games, I hope I can join the army to be a military athlete.
- My professional life will be about fencing anyway.
