A former student at Club Doncaster Sports College, Jarvis put a hold on his time at the Keepmoat to pursue his swimming dream, and has gone on to impress representing his country.

Jarvis was medalled as part of Team England’s 4x100m and 4x200m relay teams on Monday and told media this was just the start of his journey.

Principal of the Sports College, Adi Turnpenny commented:

“Jarvis spent a short time studying at the college and we have been following his progress since. On behalf of the whole of Club Doncaster Sports College, we would like to send our sincere congratulations to him on these great achievements. It seems we have had an array of students who go on to pursue swimming, including Sophie Coy and Georgia Wright, who both are currently studying in America alongside building their swimming career. It really is fantastic that we have such a variety of sporting talent amongst our students.”
