I chose Kirklees College as it has a wide range of opportunities, one of which was Forensic Science. You learn how to collect evidence and be part of the forensic process. The facilities are great, especially the laboratories which teach you how to analyse evidence and have everything you need to progress on the course.
It is a highly interesting course that covers all three sciences and allows you to independently explore the aspects of science that interest you the most. This course gave me the skills needed to secure a degree level apprenticeship with Manchester Metrapolitan University at multi-national chemical company, BASF.
I chose this course as I have always had a clear career goal of becoming a midwife and studying Biomedical Science will help me to achieve this. My favourite aspect of the course is biology. The tutors are fantastic and have always been on hand to help whilst we have been working from home.
