Error message when using INSERT INTO

Here is the Student I table encoded in postgreSQL (excerpt):

CREATE TABLE "Student"
(
  ucas_no integer NOT NULL,
  student_name character(30) NOT NULL,
  current_qualification character(30),
  degree_of_interest character(30),
  date_of_birth date NOT NULL,
  street_address character(30) NOT NULL,
  city character(30) NOT NULL,
  post_code character(10) NOT NULL,
  country character(20) NOT NULL,
  phone_no character(15) NOT NULL,
  gender character(6) NOT NULL,
  user_name character(15) NOT NULL,
  "password" character(30) NOT NULL,
  CONSTRAINT pk_ucas_no PRIMARY KEY (ucas_no),
  CONSTRAINT ten_digits_only CHECK (length(ucas_no::character(1)) >= 10 OR length(ucas_no::character(1)) <= 10)
)

Now I use the function of the pgAdmin query tool to insert data into a table. Here's the INSERT INTO code ...

INSERT INTO Student
VALUES
('912463857', 'Jon Smith', 'A-Level', 'BSc(Hons) Computer Science', '10/06/1990', '50 Denchworth Road', 'LONDON', 'OBN 244', 'England', '02077334444', 'Male', 'jonsmi', '123456');

The problem I am facing is an error message indicating that the Student table does not exist when it is explicitly in my database. Here is the error message:

ERROR:  relation "student" does not exist
LINE 1: INSERT INTO Student (ucas_no, student_name, current_qualific...
                    ^

********** Error **********

ERROR: relation "student" does not exist
SQL state: 42P01
Character: 13

Does anyone have an idea what's wrong?

you created a table "Student"and you are trying to insert into a table with a name Studentthat are different

try it

INSERT INTO "Student" VALUES('912463857', 'Jon Smith', 'A-Level', 'BSc(Hons) Computer Science', '10/06/1990', '50 Denchworth Road', 'LONDON', 'OBN 244', 'England', '02077334444', 'Male', 'jonsmi', '123456');

It will work
