Harry Hooper
A Level Statistics (Biology, Psychology)
Previous school: Charlton School
I came to SCG because there were more course options and they were the only College in the area who did Statistics A Level. I find Statistics a really interesting subject and I appreciate how it can be applied to everyday-life. After my studies I would like to get an Apprenticeship in banking. I have enjoyed having the chance to analyse data from the internet, it is realistic and great practice for my future career.
Megan Farmer
A Level Drama & Theatre (Law, English Combined)
Previous Institution: Shrewsbury Academy
I didn’t have a lot of confidence at school, but I took the opportunity of a new environment and new peers to study Drama & Theatre. The teachers are brilliant and really make you feel comfortable. I will be going on to do a Law degree, but the confidence I have gained in Drama & Theatre has helped me pursue this path.
Jason Roberts
A Level Product Design (Maths, Physics)
Previous school: The Priory School
Product Design gives you a lot of options for your future. I enjoyed the project where we had to make something out of a generic Ikea stool – I created an adjustable table. After College I would like to do an Apprenticeship with JLR.
Briony Tilsley
A Level Economics (Politics, Psychology, French)
Previous Institution: Bishop's Castle Community College
I want to study Economics at university and I really enjoyed it at GCSE. The subject gives you a wider perspective on the world and I particularly enjoy behavioural economics: asking and learning why. SCG had all the subjects I wanted and to be able to study in this town is great.
Sam Emmerson
A Level Geography (Business BTEC and ICT BTEC)
Previous school: Mary Webb School
Geography is a really interesting subject and you can have fun studying it here. You get the independence to do your own field work, but the teachers will take the time to help you out if you need it. It’s so different to GCSE Geography, you look at things differently and experience more.
