I‘ ve been studying through Fife College since I left school 13 years ago. I did my NC and my HNC and became a Qualified Practitioner. Then I left Fife College and did a stint working as a Practitioner. I recently returned to Fife College to do my HND and now I’ m doing my BA: Childhood Practice degree.
Currently I work in a fully outdoor nursery, which I never thought would happen. But I’ ve thoroughly enjoyed working there while studying.”
