Please note in addition to doing the subject listed above, Joanna also took Travel & Tourism BTEC Level 3 Diploma, which is no longer available. The closest current course is Travel & Tourism BTEC Level 3 Extended Certificate.

How did you decide which subjects to study?

Taking the Diploma in Travel & Tourism, which is the equivalent of two A Levels, meant I could really focus on my interests. 

What have you enjoyed most with your BTECs?

I’ve really enjoyed the project work and the research. I like that there’s coursework so I can work steadily throughout the year, rather everything relying purely on exams. The teachers are really supportive and encouraging. 

What do you like most about studying at College?

I enjoy having the responsibility to manage my own time and workload and the overall independence compared to other sixth forms. 

What are your plans for the future?

I’d like to go travelling before I start a Sponsored Degree with Vision Express.
