Why did you choose Reigate College?

I chose Reigate College for its university‑style atmosphere and strong academic reputation. I enjoy having more independence while still being in a hard‑working, supportive environment where I feel encouraged to do my best.

How and why did you decide which subjects to study?

As I’m interested in Journalism, English was an essential choice. I paired it with Politics and Media, as they appealed to me and offered a valuable mix of skills relevant to future study and career plans.

What have you enjoyed most about your courses?

I’ve particularly enjoyed the coursework (NEA) for Media, as it strengthened my directing and storytelling skills, and in English it’s been good to develop skills in both creative and non‑fiction writing.
