LaTeX with overleaf editor – adding another line of text without it overlapping

I want to add another line of italic text below ‘Surbiton high school’. When I add another line it just overlaps on top of what is there, instead of underneath my A-level description.

I am very new to all of this and am using a template to create my CV. Any help much appreciated!

I have included a screenshot of the CV

>Solution :

Leave an empty line to start a new paragraph and then add whatever text you want (and \end{document} is missing again …):
