    My course allowed me to work on real-life projects. My favourite was the redesign of the Strand Road campus estate, as part of the Project Based Learning Awards. My group’s work was selected as one of the winning projects!

    The traditional route of A-Levels just wasn’t for me. My years at NWRC were amazing, significantly shaping my creative journey. The facilities and lecturers are the best. I felt incredibly prepared to study Fashion Design at Ulster University.
