A Level
Courses for Adults

I chose the A Levels I did to explore and have an output for personal expression and creative writing. York College & University Centre offers outstanding teaching and I felt like there was a real sense of community spirit. I love the city of York, so the college was the perfect choice. I’m now progressing to study English Literature and Creative Writing at York St John University.
