“I like having an open classroom as it feels more relaxed and less like school. It feels like a workplace and you can collaborate more easily. If you’re considering doing a T Level it’s definitely worth doing as it gives you all the skills employers actually look for and not just a qualification.”
“I chose New College Swindon because the course looked interesting. I can to an open event and liked the look of the facilities, it was modern and had all the right equipment. The plumbing class has electric threaders, which is cool! I wasn’t expecting to have boilers and cylinders to work on too.”
“It is great to have the ‘real’ hospital ward to practice in. I have also been given lots of information from people such as placement officers and HE staff to help plan for my future.”
“I like the lecturers; they are motivated to get the best out of you and push you to get the most out of the course. I also enjoy the trips; I was able to mix with people from other classes and make new friends. I like the wide range of careers Public Services can take you; it’s a very diverse course and all the lecturers have so much passion when they teach and are motivated to get the best out of everyone.”
