Phoebe
University of PlymouthBEd (Hons) Primary (KS1/KS2 with QTS)After finishing my A-levels at small sixth form in 2019 (and a few gap years!), I started my university journey. It took me a long time to decide what path I wanted to take, so I very much relate to the uncertainty you might be feeling at this stage! I am from a very rural village in Cornwall, so naturally love the outdoors. So, for someone not used to urban living, Plymouth is a great in-between! It has so much to offer, including a balance between city and coastal life. I am now in my third (and final!) year of my BEd Primary Education degree, specialising in geography. After graduating in 2025, I hope to pursue a career in teaching and share my passion for educating for sustainability. -

Kiya
Bournemouth UniversityBA (Hons) Computer Animation Art and DesignHello! I'm Kiya, a student ambassador for Bournemouth University, studying Animation. Our course here is strongly focused on 3D animation, which allows us to explore industry-standard tools and techniques. While we don’t have a specific 2D animation unit, life drawing is a key part of the curriculum and really helps to develop an understanding of movement and anatomy—skills that are critical in both 2D and 3D animation. I’ve always been fascinated by the way animation brings stories to life, whether it’s through films, musicals, or even video games. I’m especially inspired by movies like *Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse* for its incredible use of both 2D and 3D animation, and musicals like "back to the future the musical" which bring so much color and energy to storytelling along side film techniques on stage . Those influences really shape my creative process, and I often find myself blending styles from different mediums in my personal projects. BU has given me a solid foundation in 3D animation through software like Maya and Unreal Engine, but what really excites me is how the course encourages us to think creatively and find our own artistic voice. It’s not just about the technical skills; it’s about how you tell a story visually and emotionally. If you have any questions about the Animation course, BU, or why bournemouth is such a good place for animation students, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to share my experience and passion for animation! -

Sacha
University of PlymouthBSc (Hons) Environmental Management and SustainabilityI am in the final year of my degree (BSc Environmental Management and Sustainability with a placement year)!

During my time at the university, I have been an active member of a sports club, a course rep and a subject-specific student ambassador.
Bristol
Tucked between Somerset and Gloucestershire, many forget that Bristol is both a city – known for its alternative and creative culture – and its own county.
Well connected to Wales, Cornwall, London and Birmingham, Bristol combines plenty of styles, architecture and music – plus the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge over Avon Gorge.
Cornwall
With over 300 miles of coastline, you'll be dazzled by Cornwall’s magnificent beaches, dramatic cliffs, winding roads and Bronze Age remains.
Once you’ve worked up an appetite on the waves or in the hills, there are plenty of tasty local treats too – from Cornish pasties, to fudge and ice cream.
Devon
Life moves at a gentle pace in most of these parts, with small seaside towns scattered across its two delightful coastlines.
Meanwhile, its two biggest cities, Plymouth and Exeter, have all the bustle, nightlife and shopping you could want.
Dorset
Just under half of Dorset is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, while the captivating Jurassic Coast is England’s only natural UNESCO World Heritage Site, stretching almost 100 miles.
It’s no wonder Dorset has inspired authors, filmmakers, and tourists alike – with Bournemouth a popular destination for students and beach enthusiasts.
Gloucestershire
Many consider Gloucestershire to offer the quintessential English experience. You'll find Cheltenham’s rows of white regency architecture, Gloucester's splendid Cathedral and docks, and many a cute village in The Cotswolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
A big festival county – including Cheltenham's world-famous Literature, Science and Jazz Festivals – Gloucestershire's also home to the intelligence agency, GCHQ.
Somerset
Largely rural, with a small population for its size, Somerset’s main centre is Bath – a popular student city and a UNESCO World Heritage site, famous for its preserved Roman baths and Georgian architecture.
Plus, many believe Cadbury Castle to be the fabled Camelot of King Arthur.
Wiltshire
Rural Wiltshire has some intriguing landmarks, most notably the incredible Stonehenge. Attracting over a million visitors every year, the prehistoric monument has baffled experts.
Lesser known are Wiltshire’s White Horses, carved in the rolling hills across the county.
