“I chose a BTEC as I believed that it would be the option that suited me the best and would enable me to get the most out of this part of my educational journey. I chose Kingston as it had so many different courses to choose from. The shows at the end of the year, being able to work with the tutors and other students also from different courses has got to be my favourite part. My advice for anyone looking to apply for any of the Performing Arts courses at Kingston is to go for it! I have had the best time and have met true friends for life.”
