A Level Law (Fine Art and History)
Previous Institution: Overseas
I want to study Criminal Law at university and the A Level gives an insight into this, as well as a range of other areas of Law.
Amber Musgrove-Benford
A Level History (Politics, English Literature)
Previous School: Newport Girls High School
I decided to study at SCG because I wanted a change of scenery and a bigger college, so it would be easier for transition to University. After attending an Open Evening I decided this was the best place to be. I have really enjoyed looking at American history in the 60s and 70s – the civil rights and women’s rights movements. The teaching is really good and we look at very interesting modern history. I will be going to the University of Manchester to study Law - History has given me great reading skills that I can take with me.
Lily Williams
A Level English Literature (History, Biology)
Previous Institution: Belvidere School
I loved English Literature at GCSE, so wanted to carry on studying it at A Level. It is really interesting finding out about different contexts and characters. We look at a wide variety of literature, but my favourite so far is Shakespeare’s Coriolanus. This subject has really improved my analysis and ability to make judgements, which will be vital for my future career.
James Lee
IT Multimedia and Games BTEC (A Level Economics)
Previous school: Meole Brace School
You learn useful IT skills and good communication skills in this subject. The whole class is very supportive and has helped me maintain deadlines and kept me organised. I really enjoyed doing animation, it was adaptable to real world marketing.
Abi Kershaw
A Level Physical Education (Biology, Psychology)
Previous school: Lakelands School
I want to study a sport subject at university, probably physical therapy, so taking Physical Education at A Level was an obvious choice. I really enjoy all the practicals that we do. I played for the England Under 19s Rugby team and I am also part of the College Rugby team which I found out about at the Induction Festival during my first week at SCG.
