Student Success

I never expected that starting as an administrator would lead me towards a career in accounting. Being given the opportunity to study AAT Level 2 has completely changed my career path.

This college has given me the confidence, support, and inspiration I was missing before, and it’s helped me realise that my future could be bigger than I ever imagined whether that’s acting, directing, or something I haven’t discovered yet. I’m genuinely excited to continue my journey here next academic year and see how much more I can grow, learn, and achieve.

I loved my teachers and classmates and I am very proud of what I have achieved. I hope to progress to be dentist after university but I am going to have a gap year first to gain some work experience.

I loved the staff and made many friends. After I get more experience I want to open a restaurant. I am very proud to have won this award.

My tutor was an inspiration and built my confidence. I would 100% recommend the course as it has prepared me for the future with the experience you get with clients. In the future I would like to teach others to be an assessor.

“I enjoyed everything on course, particularly Sugar craft. I would tell anyone Believe that you can do it and you will achieve it! The competitions really pushed me forwards!” 

The course was good and a great atmosphere to get back into an educational environment.

Thurrock felt different from school, and I was excited for that. The best thing about my course is the tutors as I love learning. I love that it’s a T Level and I got to go on placement, so it’s not just college, it’s real experience. It’s been amazing because it’s landed me a job in a nursery in Corringham. The college picked the placement, and I wouldn’t have had that experience or job without them. I would definitely recommend the college and have recommended it to my friends.
