Case Studies

Next year, I’m going to university as I’ve been offered an unconditional place at the University of Huddersfield to study Interior Design which is my passion and dream job.

Taking part in the Chemistry Olympiad made me realise I wanted to study Chemistry at a higher level—and now I’ve secured a place at the University of Oxford.

I chose this course because in the future, I would like to open up my own business in the hospitality industry like a restaurant.

After I complete my A Levels, I am going to Sheffield Hallam University to study Illustration as my dream job is to be an illustrator in the creative industry.

I’ve now applied to study Law at the Leeds Beckett University and Leeds Trinity University as my dream job is to be a solicitor or court judge.

All the tutors are supportive and give you personalised feedback which has helped me improve in all areas of dance, especially with picking up choreography quicker.

I wanted to learn a trade that would stay with me for life whilst also gaining a qualification, and with my apprenticeship I can do both.

I would recommend an apprenticeship to anyone. You earn whilst you learn and become responsible for your own future. It is a great opportunity.

I wanted a hands-on learning experience that would also give me a qualification and allow me to earn straight away.

I really recommend the T Level in Childcare & Education because you get experience working with children and learn a lot of practical skills.
