Help with Challenge Task 3 of 3- .html()

Hey! I don't know why this answer isn't passing. I've answered $('.profile-header').html(Student<span>Profile</span>");

Thoughts?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1 class="profile-header"></h1>
    <p class="profile-text"></p>

    <script
    src="jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
    <script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
app.js 
$('.profile-text').text("I am a web developer");

$('.profile-header').html("Student<span>Profile</span>");

Just add a space in between Student and the <

$('.profile-header').html("Student <span>Profile</span>");

The challenges are pretty picky when it comes to strings
