Student Comments:
"The course has been absolutely fantastic - I have enjoyed learning new things as well as having my existing knowledge reinforced"
"My course is based on the Wirral which is a great advantage for me as it enables me to help at school in the morning before studying in the evening and afternoon."
"The tutors are friendly and supportive. It is a fantastic opportunity for local people to work towards further academic qualifications at a local venue."
