Matthew Thomas
A Level Electronics (Physics, ICT BTEC)
Previous Institution: Shrewsbury Academy
I do Electronics and Physics because they tie in really nicely together and will help me with an Apprenticeship in the future. I especially enjoy the practicals and building circuits, but there is also a good balance with theory work.
Harry Hooper
A Level Statistics (Biology, Psychology)
Previous school: Charlton School
I came to SCG because there were more course options and they were the only College in the area who did Statistics A Level. I find Statistics a really interesting subject and I appreciate how it can be applied to everyday-life. After my studies I would like to get an Apprenticeship in banking. I have enjoyed having the chance to analyse data from the internet, it is realistic and great practice for my future career.
Bob Huntington
A Level Geology (Biology and Chemistry)
Previous school: Haberdashers' Adams School
Geology is an interesting and captivating subject in all areas, I am especially interested in tectonics. You get to go on some great field trips like Blencathra in the Lake District. The enthusiasm of the teacher is infectious. I am hoping to go into the Navy once I have finished college.
Georgie Bumpus
A Level Further Mathematics (Mathematics, Physics and German)
Previous Institution: Meole Brace School
Studying here has given me an even greater love of Maths because of the fantastic Maths department. The teachers are brilliant and I have access to all the resources I need. I got the opportunity to take part in the British Maths Olympiad and that really helped with my application to University. I am going to study Maths at St Johns College, Oxford University and I aspire to do academic research after that.
Demi Thomas
A Level Law (Politics, Sociology)
Previous school: Shrewsbury Academy
Law can be a challenging A Level, but it is worth it and I thrive when being pushed. The resources are great here and the support is amazing - I picked SCG after coming to an Open Evening. The aspect I find
most interesting to study is manslaughter cases and I have especially enjoyed learning about battered woman syndrome. I would like to become a solicitor or barrister in family law so I will be going to study Law at Edge Hill University.
