Finely, who previously attended The Petersfield School added:
“I have really enjoyed the opportunities and experiences HSDC have given me to broaden my knowledge and understanding in a range of different areas.
My courses have prepared me for my next steps after college in terms of knowledge, but also in employability skills such as time management and organisation.
Later this year, I will be undertaking an Electrical and Electronic Degree Apprenticeship with Rolls Royce PLC in Solihull.”

Vocational and T Level students were also celebrating their hard work and dedication at HSDC’s South Downs Campus.
This included Lucy Inwood, who studied a T Level in Health and Nursing.
Lucy, who previously studied at Horndean Technology College added:

The Health and Nursing T Level course has helped enhance my employability as I was able to have real-life, invaluable experiences which I could use for my university interviews. I could use scenarios to answer questions they asked me.
I am now headed to Southampton Uni to study a dual Masters in Adult and Mental Health Nursing”.
In addition, Kaci Sheen who also studied Health and Nursing at the South Downs Campus said:
“My favourite part of my HSDC experience was meeting new people and having supportive lecturers. The practicals were the best part of the course because we always have a laugh whilst doing the serious stuff.
My course has helped my employability as it has given me hands-on experience – this particular teaching style really helped me learn.”
Kaci, who previously studied at Crookhorn College, hopes to continue her studies at the University of Bournemouth where she will study Midwifery.
Elsewhere on the Alton Campus, celebrations continued with former Amery Hill student Dwayne Nobleza who is going on to study Material Science & Engineering at Imperial College London.
Dwayne, who achieved an A* in Mathematics, B in Further Mathematics, A in Physics and B in Chemistry added:

“Alton College has helped me secure an offer from the highest-ranked university for STEM as of 2024-2025 which is Imperial College London.
My advice to anyone considering studying A Levels at Alton College is to have fun and put the work in, trust in the process and try to make studying and revising fun, it helps.”
Meanwhile, Jack Parnell, who previously studied at Weydon School achieved an impressive A in Mathematics, a B in History and an A in Politics.
Jack added:
“My favourite part of my Alton College experience was the teachers as I had a really good relationship with them which helped a lot.
My advice to future students would be to keep up with homework and research the subject as much as you can, it will pay off.”
Thorfin Rolfe, who also studied at Alton Campus and achieved a B in Geography, a C in 3D Design and a Distinction* in Engineering added:
“My favourite thing about Alton College was studying Engineering – the teachers were fun and inspiring.
My advice to anyone wanting to follow in my footsteps is to get all of the coursework completed as soon as possible, if you find yourself ahead, that’s great, stay ahead.”
