I started on a Foundation Learning course while managing caring responsibilities and overcoming significant life challenges, including joining college without any GCSEs. College has changed everything; my tutors have supported me every step of the way and created a safe and inclusive environment. I’m excited to be heading to Liverpool John Moores University to study Animal Behaviour!
Transitioning to a large college was daunting due to my autism, but the kindness of my tutors and classmates made me feel welcome. I’ve grown in confidence, made lifelong memories, and discovered a passion for wildlife. Now I’m inspired to study Wildlife Conservation at university.
