Student case study
Abdullah
At just 20 years old, Abdullah decided to return to education after not achieving as high grades in his A-levels as he had wished. He decided to take the Access to HE Diploma (Science) at Peterborough College, with determination to progress onto a top university.
Abdullah shared that his favourite parts of the experience were the friendships he formed, as well as the lessons which were carried out in supportive and enriching ways, strongly led by incredible tutors. He mentioned how different teachers had different styles of teaching, each helping him increase his knowledge.
The Access to HE Diploma equipped Abdullah with the skills needed for university life, with a variety of assignments, including presentations which significantly boosted his confidence.
He would highly recommend the course to anyone with ambitions for higher education, emphasising its intense but rewarding nature. He added, a testament to the course's transformative impact on students striving for academic success.
Now accepted to King’s College to study Chemistry, Abdullah is looking forward to the exciting journey ahead. He’s most looking forward to the friendships he will make at university and the chance to continue achieving fantastic grades.
The entire CAVA team wishes Abdullah all the best for his future studies.
