Jayson Churn felt like a failure but now he is CEO of his own logistics company and says with hard work, dreams can still come true

Jayson Churn didn’t achieve any passes in his GCSEs but he is now CEO of his own transport logistics company Holding the envelope containing his exam results, Jayson Churn remembers opening it nervously and feeling a thud in his stomach as he looked at the slip and saw a string of U’s and D’s.. “I can distinctly remember one of my friends turning to me and saying: ‘What are you going to do now? You’ve got nothing. I bet you wish you’d tried harder now.

But while he excelled at sports, Jayson, who lives in Southend, Essex, struggled in lessons and remembers finding Maths and Science particularly difficult. “I would sit at the back of the classroom and try the best I could, but I wouldn’t really get it. Jayson then pursued an apprenticeship with truck manufacturing company DAF but was asked if he had any GCSEs. “I told them that I didn’t, but that I promised to work really hard and do whatever they needed me to do and make the teas,” he recalled.Jayson took two trains and a bus to get to his DAF apprenticeship until he passed his driving test. As part of the apprenticeship, he had to take an aptitude test and “failed miserably.

He is also a member of the Road Haulage Association Council and wants to give hope to young people who might be feeling dismayed with their exam results. He added: “On exam results day, you hear from your head, your heart and your gut. My head told me that I was going to amount to nothing and would be picking out bins and sweeping yards for the rest of my life.“My advice to those who are disappointed on exam results day is to not worry about what your head is telling you, but to listen to your heart and follow your gut.”

She now runs a successful business as a booking agent and manager, organising 1,000 events a year and working with major international brands.: “I’ve always been into music. In my teenage years, throughout secondary school, I went to gigs and festivals and I was lucky enough to go backstage at a few of them because I knew some of the bands.After her GCSES, “I was planning to go to college because everyone was. I didn’t really want to go but I thought it was expected.

“It was quite easy to book bands for free in order to showcase the music, so that’s how I did it. I did a few shows in Reading, and then I did one in Brighton with Jessie J before she was famous.
