I cannot fault the teaching and support I got throughout my time at Kendal College. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone.

What did you enjoy most about the course that you studied?

In my first year studying Animal Care, I had to learn a lot about various subjects (anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, embryology, histology etc.) In the second year, I had fewer subjects, but I learnt at a deeper level, which I found really enjoyable. The hands-on anatomy practical's were my favourite part of the course. They were challenging but easily the best way to learn for me.

I studied both a BTEC and an A-level, and I cannot fault the teaching and support I got throughout my time at Kendal College. The teachers were always happy to help if I didn't understand something or if I needed help with my university application, even sometimes taking time out of their lunch break to help!
