"My apprehensions about being dyslexic and not being able to access the work were soon laid to rest as I received unparalleled support and guidance from the outset.

I always felt that there was a focus on my personal development rather than just the skills and knowledge required for the profession. There was a unified process in which you could scaffold, experiment and analyse various situations, which I feel truly prepared me for the educational environment. This was crucial in my development as a practitioner, and has allowed me to confidently explore, deliver and reflect on my practice both in and outside the classroom.

My greatest anxiety about education has always been the fear of not knowing. I can honestly say that I only ever felt motivated with a sense of all-round achievement throughout the programme, and this was largely due to the dedication of staff and appropriateness of professionals invited to work alongside the cohort."
