STUDENT VIEW

Aileen Belle (Level 2 Student) “My first year has been amazing. Work was set out at a good pace, I was able to approach my tutors at any time about anything and they were more than happy to help. It is important to attend the introductory sessions, particularly for IT and the library, as you will need this information right from the start.”

STAFF VIEW

Paul Hardwick (English staff) “With modes of communication changing so rapidly, the cultural positions of both literature and, indeed, television, are currently undergoing significant shifts. We look forward to working with you at this particularly fascinating time.”
