I chose Stoke on Trent college because it seemed like the best suited college for me. After attending the open evening I fell in love with the whole college. The staff were so so lovely and supportive and the students I saw were amazing and helped out with everything I needed.

I really like my course and in my first year I have achieved distinctions in all my coursework I have submitted so far.

Once I complete my course I am hoping to do paramedic science at Staffordshire University, and hopefully have a career specifying in trauma paramedics!
