Wirral Met student Angela Murray who achieved her Maths GCSE this year said “I really struggled with maths and English at school and came away without my qualifications. The tutors at Wirral Met are so supportive and after completing a teaching assistant qualification at the college, they gave me the confidence to study for my maths GCSE! With these qualifications I am now hoping to study an Early Years degree at Wirral Met next year. I feel like I have done my life in reverse but it just shows that it is never too late to go back to education and achieve things you didn’t think you could!”
