A Level Graphic Communication (Photography)
Previous school: Welshpool High School

SCG was recommended to me by former students and I visited when I was in Year 10 and really liked the Graphics department. Animation has been my favourite project so far, but I also enjoy typography. The environment is very inclusive and it is creative and friendly. I want to continue in Graphic Design after College.

A Level Sociology (Business, Photography)
Previous school: The Priory School

I thought Sociology A Level sounded really interesting. I want to go into Nursing after College and it will really help me achieve that. I enjoyed learning about sociological methods. Sociology helps you to have an open mind and see things from different perspectives. Sociology is a relevant and interesting subject. I will be continuing it at university, but not sure what I want to specialise in yet, I just know I want to work in Sociology. The teaching is good, and relevant to current situations in the world and you learn skills that you can transfer over to other subjects. I have enjoyed learning about crime sociology the most – why crimes are committed and how authorities react.

A Level Film Studies (English Literature and Classical Civilisation)
Previous school: Lacon Childe School

Film Studies has equipped me with various analytical skills which are particularly useful for essay writing. However, more importantly, it has taken me on a cinematic adventure, establishing a love and appreciation for film I previously didn’t possess.
