“‘I chose this course because I
have always wanted to work
with children and I knew it was
something I was going to enjoy.
Many of my family members
had studied here before and
told me it was a good college.
I enjoy learning about how
children develop and grow.

“‘At secondary school, I did work
experience with a primary
school which inspired me to
want to teach children. Before
choosing to study Childcare
here, I visited the college and
talked to the staff who were
very helpful. What I enjoy most
about this course is that I can
do a placement in a nursery
and a primary school, which
helps me decide which age i
would like to work with. Once
I have passed the course, I
would love to go to university
to study primary teaching and
get a degree.’
