Derwentside College
was ideal for me as it’s
close to my home and
easy to travel to. We get
lots of time to speak to
the tutors and ask
questions about what we
are learning, as well as
having group discussions.
The course provides
good options to either
progress to an
apprenticeship, go to
university or straight into
employment in an
IT field.
