What our students say
Vocational Access Case Study

When I first joined the college, I studied Vocational Access for two years, and then went on to study MAC Media for one year based at Media Academy Cardiff. From my Vocational Access course, I could have progressed on to courses in cookery, science or sport to a name a few, but I chose music. Having so many opportunities being given to you to pick from was brillaint. I then progressed on to Music and Performance Level 2 and Level 3. My next step is to go to university.
