Public Service student Kyle Brewer achieved D*D*D* in his Level 3 Extended Diploma.
I found the course challenging at times, but very rewarding. I decided to join The Henley College primarily due to the Rugby programme, however the variety of courses and the professional but relaxed environment was also important when deciding. The best part of my time at the college was receiving my final grade! College has prepared me for the big wide world, not everything is spoon fed to you, which will help me with my next steps in University.
