Hi Guys, My name is Atolani Oyewumi, and I graduated from the University of Warwick in July 2023, after studying Politics, Philosophy and Economics (PPE.) I have recently completed my MSC in International Business from Loughborough University. I left CIS for the UK in 2014 and joined Wycliffe College in year 8, where I later became the first Black deputy Head of School. I have a variety of passions ranging from performing arts and politics to football, rugby, tennis, basketball and cricket. I look forward to helping anyone I can, whether it be advice or information, or simply emotional support.

What was the biggest challenge you faced adapting to boarding school?

Definitely leaving home after the holidays. It wasn’t too bad being away for large amounts of times, but when returning to school, it just made me miss home more.
