AFTER high school, I went straight on to university to do Primary teaching but found it overwhelming and not for me, so I dropped out. I went on to work in accounts, and got comfy in my nine to five job with no real ambition to do anything else. My Dad knew I could do much more with my life, and before he died in 2014 he encouraged me to go to college, to get some qualifications and learn something that I enjoyed. I went back to college to do an HNC in Social Care to get used to learning again as a mature student and continued on to do HND Social Science. Last
year I progressed on to a degree in Social Sciences with the Open University and I am so proud to have achieved a First-class Honours degree. I’m one of many people for whom the traditional university route didn’t fit and the OU has made so much possible for me.
