School looking at ways Yashika can complete A-levels
Now that Yashika Bageerathi has been deported back to Mauritius, her school says it is looking into all the options that might allow her to complete her A-levels.
Ideally, they are hoping that she might be able to return to the UK, but they are also exploring whether it will be possible for her to sit them remotely from Mauritius.
Either way, the students and teachers at Oasis Academy Hadley in Enfield say their fight to help her is not over.
They are also hoping to widen their campaign to raise awareness of the plight of other asylum seekers.
