High Tunstall College of Science
Paul is currently working at Millfield Preparatory School as a Sports Intern during his placement year at university.
Paul described his time at Hartlepool Sixth From as entertaining, educational and a great stepping stone.
He said:
“The great relationship I had with my lecturers created a positive learning environment, we were respected and made to feel like we were adults.
There were great facilities to use during my time at the sixth form, in particular the gym and the sports hall.
There were a lot of sporting opportunities available too, I was able to get involved in extra-curricular activities such as golf which helped to clear my mind and help me keep focused in the classroom.”
Paul took a gap year out straight after sixth form to play cricket in Australia, he has since returned home to study at Loughborough University.
The best thing at Hartlepool Sixth Form was that the teachers go out of their way to help you. There was always a good atmosphere around campus.
