It’s all thanks to the course I took and my amazing tutors, that I now have my dream career! I would highly recommend the course to anyone wanting to go to university, without the Access course I would never have had the opportunity as I only had 1 GCSE when I left high school.
Bobby first started her journey at Lancaster & Morecambe College when she finished high school and found the College to be friendly and supportive. In 2017, Bobby came back to College to study our Health and Social Care Professionals Level 2 part time course which led her to progress onto our full time Access to HE Diploma in 2018 and is now a midwife for the NHS.
When asked what the best parts of the course were for her, Bobby said
I loved that the tutors were always there for me and helped guide me through my course. I found all the learning modules to be relevant and interesting.
The access course allowed her to expand her academic skills such as how to correctly reference and how to better structure her writing in preparation for University level studying. As well as developing her academic skills, Bobby also further improved her critical thinking skills which helps her whilst working in an often stressful, high-intensity environment such as the NHS.
When writing assignments for my university work, I would always remember what my tutor, Laura, had taught me. She would always say that to enhance the quality of my assignments I should ask myself ‘so what?’; using this I was able to produce my best work.
Since completing the Access course, Bobby attended University of Cumbria, developing the skills and knowledge that she learned during her time at College. After graduating with an impressive first class honors in Midwifery. Bobby currently works as a midwife for the NHS,
In my job role, I am responsible for the care of women and their families throughout their entire pregnancy journey.

My favourite part of working at Lancaster & Morecambe college is watching students progress and supporting them with their learning. I also love knowing they are learning within a hairdressing environment and being able to see them develop their skills and knowledge in hairdressing.
In my role as a course tutor I’m responsible for ensuring that my students develop in many areas, and not just Hairdressing. I like to encourage my students to improve their well-being as well as support them with their personal development and learning journey, to gain the knowledge to be successful within their course to achieve the qualifications they need to progress in the industry.
My favourite part of my role is helping my students take the first step towards fulfilling their ambitions to go to university and, eventually, progressing into their dream careers.
