The sky's the limit for 14-year-old Megan Smith who won a gold medal at the British Gymnastics Championships last weekend.
Beating other gymnasts, including World and European champions, the Upton Court Grammar School student showed off her skills to win the top prize in the 11 to 16 women's category.
Her achievement means she will now enter trials at the Liverpool National Sports Centre in Shropshire, for the World Gymnastic Championships to be held in July.
Principal of the school in Lascelles Road, Mercedes Hernandez Estrada, said: "Megan has done incredibly well against older and more experience opposition and we know she will do us all proud at the World Gymnastics Championships.
"She is incredibly talented as well as hard-working which makes her a true champion."
The competition started on Saturday and continued the next day.
