“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 friendly students and staff – I’m having a good time! What the teachers are teaching me helps me when I’m working onsite with my job.”
“The college has given me the chance to broaden my horizons and meet new people. The studio space is great as it allows us to produce professional feeling projects.”
“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.”
