NAME: TRUDY I AGE: 27
‘I was a stay at home mum and decided to take my maths GCSE at Shipley College and really enjoyed it.
I had always wanted to be a teacher and looked at Childcare courses, but then I found out about the
Access route with the January start. I am hoping to do my BA Hons in Primary Education at the University
of Bradford. I also volunteer at my son’s Primary School in Thornton. I like Shipley College because it is
small and has a nice atmosphere.’
