“I am studying at Wood Street Campus and I’m on the BTEC Business level 3. Everything on the course has been lovely and everyone has been very supportive. My highlight are all of the lectures as the teachers help you a lot, and if you’re struggling they explain something to you many times until you are comfortable enough to complete all of your assignments, in fact all the teachers in the business department are amazing. I come into College three days a week, and most of my course is based on assignments and coursework rather than exams.

"In secondary school I found it hard as I didn’t know much English but here at College I improved my vocabulary and the course really helped me. The social life at College is really good and everyone is really friendly, in fact making new friends has been the best bit and my highlight of the course. College also helps you with work placements and they help you find one to make sure that you get the right work experience. My plans are to go to university once I have finished my level 3; I already have an offer at the University of Greenwich studying international business with Spanish. Eventually my dream would be to launch my own skincare brand as I love skincare and beauty.

"I would definitely recommend the College to my friends and family as it’s a really nice environment and everyone here is really helpful and they really believe in you and they believe that you can achieve anything.”
