“I like the step up in independence that New College gives you compared to secondary school. I also love the amount of opportunities there are to join other initiatives such as: NC Ambassadors, sports clubs and volunteering within the Harbour Project. I’ve been involved with the New College Ambassadors, which has helped me become more confident and develop leadership skills.”
