I come from Falkirk originally, but now live in Scone, and I am currently studying ‘Return to Learn’.
I have been a full-time single father for the last ten years. Having been out of education for a long time, this course was a good idea as I like that it fits around my family commitments.

During the pandemic, we had a good mix of online and face to face teaching. A standout moment from the course was when we did a charity tombola to raise money for the walled garden.

Since doing the course, I have more commitment to learn, and I am looking forward to more learning. I like that everyone is really helpful on campus.

The return to learn course is a good stepping-stone for anyone who has been out of education for a long time. After I finish the course, I would like to go on and do health and social care, to eventually become a social worker.
