My name is Michelle and I have recently completed my BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Studies. I started attending Ashton Sixth Form College when I left school and I completed my BTEC National Diploma in Early Years. Upon completion I began work in my chosen career. Later, I decided that I wanted to go back to college to study for a Degree to enhance my career prospects.

Michelle Schofield First Class Honours Degree in Early Childhood Studies ——

I chose to return to Ashton Sixth Form College as an adult learner to complete my Foundation Degree in Young Children’s Learning and Development. They offered the course that I was looking for at an affordable price. The college is local which enables me to fit the course into my busy work and family life.

I completed my Foundation Degree and then stayed at Ashton Sixth Form College to top up to the BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Studies. My tutor was extremely supportive and would often stay behind after lessons to discuss assignments and I could always contact her in between classes via email or telephone when she was always responsive. The courses which I have completed have been useful, interesting and enabled me to gain higher qualifications to help me to progress to management level in my chosen career. The course has been difficult at times; however I have been well supported and worked hard.

CASE STUDIES 0161 666 8215

The facilities and support at Ashton Sixth Form College are excellent, the tutors take a personal interest in you to ensure that you reach your potential and therefore I would recommend Ashton Sixth Form College to my friends and colleagues.

I am currently studying a Foundation Degree in Education; the course has changed my life completely.

I started out by working as a volunteer at a children’s centre, and then I got a voluntary teaching assistant role at a primary school.

I was volunteering for a year when I applied for a full time paid role at the school, I was so happy to be offered the job.

James Sidebottom Foundation Degree in Education ——

I had very little experience as a teaching assistant but the course has improved my knowledge and skills and the fact that I was studying demonstrated my dedication and determination when I applied for the job.

I won’t lie and say the course is easy but with the support and commitment of the tutors and my goal in mind, my hard work is now paying off – literally!

I have gone from very low earnings to now being a home owner with a good salary. Studying has definitely improved my life. When I complete my Foundation Degree in Education I then want to complete a further 18 months to top up into a full BA (Hons) Degree. My long term goal is to become a social worker or a teacher.
