“Hairdressing wasn’t something I wanted to do from the beginning. I started working for Scots Hair Design on Saturdays and decided I really enjoyed it. This then gave me the opportunity to start an apprenticeship with them, so I could progress in my career and gain a qualification at the same time. I would really recommend this course to other students. You have to be ready to work hard, stand for long periods at a time and work long hours, but the end result is worth it. I am looking forward to progressing to the Level 3, my future aspirations would be to do session work at shows at events such as London Fashion Week.”

“Excellent tutoring and support at all times throughout the course, even though it is just ‘part time’. Safe and comfortable environment with a mix of modern and older equipment, which is more realistic to what you would find in real industry.”

“I recommend the HNC/HND Arts Practice course to other students as it is very independent, and you are treated like an adult. Grantham College has helped me understand what I have to do to get the grades I want and have helped me with my dyslexia. You can work at your own pace, choose the direction and outcome you want. The course is very diverse, and you get a lot of group opinions and ideas.”

“I love the Foundation Course at Grantham college. I love how well we work together to achieve our aspirations, share our experiences and collectively think together to shed some light from all different backgrounds. The course is a fantastic starting point allowing us to gain experience whilst gaining further knowledge to improve on our practice.”
