Hear the stories of 3 local students and their routes to a career (College/Apprenticeship/Uni) – what would they have done anything differently?
Through showing three individuals journey through their HE and FE journey, students will be able to assess the different routes available to them and what would suit their learning style best. Each case study provides details of each step of their journey as well as what advice they would give to their 16 year olds selves now.
