Katie was a student ambassador during her time at New College Durham, which she said helped her gain a different perspective about the subjects she was studying. She described her experience at New College Durham as supportive and inspired.
She said: “I chose to study at New College Durham as it had a good choice of a subjects to choose from. When I came to visit everyone was friendly and I thought I'd be better suited there than at a Sixth Form.
“I liked the supportive teaching staff as they were always there to answer questions, even during holidays. Doing A-Levels allowed me to cover a wide range of subjects, which at times overlapped. The campus was very modern with plenty of places to study outside of the classroom.”
Katie is now working as a Finance Management Information Apprentice for Vertu Motors.
