“I’ve played football to a high level since I was eight and currently I’m a semi professional player for Fylde Ladies Football Club.
“I did consider conventional A levels but then I found Reaseheath offered this A level equivalent course which would let me study and play football, so there was no contest! The course has a good mix of units which apply across all areas of the industry, and the sporting facilities like the gym and 3G pitch are really good.
“I’ve really enjoyed my time here. The campus is relaxed and has good vibes and the lecturers are very supportive. My course has opened many doors for me, university-wise, and I feel I’ve developed as a person.”
