Ben studied Creative Media Level 3 and chose to study at CWA as it was local to him, and everyone was very welcoming on the open days. He says, “It was not a school environment, which I liked and gave me more creative freedom.”

He found that he really enjoyed his final project for the course and was able to be creative, showing off his talents and skills. Ben adds, “My time at CWA gave me the confidence I needed to pursue a career in Creative Media. I had a great time on my course, everyone was friendly and fun to work with. The course was enjoyable, and I feel it gave me responsibility, independence and helped me to evolve as a person going into adulthood.”

Ben won the Level 3 Student of the Year Award and now intends to go to university and continue his studies.
