"As a mature student, returning to education after many years working in the childcare sector, I firstly completed an ‘Access to Education’ course in order to prepare myself for higher education. When reading about the ECS course, I remember being so enthusiastic as it seemed to be exactly what I had yearned to investigate when deciding to study education. Now in the last year of the course, I am convinced that I have made the right choice!

Being part of ECS has been an incredible experience and the course has assisted me to grasp complex concepts and theories which I had frequently questioned in my work experience. The course has been a great combination of personal development and academic challenges. All the units have been thought provoking and have taught me to be more analytical and critical on various subjects related to society’s sensitive issues such as identity, ‘race’ and cultural diversity.

Goldsmiths is a vibrant, diverse and open-minded place to study. The lecturers are highly knowledgeable and are very approachable and supportive. Students are encouraged to think creatively and to develop individual originality, in order to become strong individuals able to take part positively in society’s education."
