Tudor Grange Academy Worcester

Hi I’m James and I am now studying at Loughborough University.
I spent my two years at Tudor Grange Sixth Form studying
biology A-Level, Psychology A-Level and Sport and Exercise
Science BTEC. I decided to go to university to delve deeper into
sport psychology which caught my interest during my BTEC
course, to meet new people from different backgrounds and to
develop life skills.
Whilst at university I have enjoyed using Loughborough’s first
class facilities to play cricket and football, whilst also becoming a
member of Loughborough’s psychology society.
I aspire to have a career in sport psychology and contribute to
the development of a fairly newly emerging field in psychology.

I studied history, biology and psychology A-Levels at Tudor
Grange Sixth Form, which has allowed me to go on and study
Evolutionary Anthropology at the University of Liverpool.
My selected modules have allowed me to explore and study my
own archaeological excavations and sites.
I was awarded the Rowlands Trust Bursary which has given me
the opportunity to complete 10 days of research during the
summer of 2024 and 2025. The bursary has been invaluable in
helping me adapt to university life and my new surroundings,
preparing me for the next two years.

At Tudor Grange I studied English Language, psychology and drama
A-Levels. I really enjoyed my time here as the smaller classes
suited my learning style and I had a very good relationship with my
teachers. The support from said teachers enabled me to get the
grades needed to study English Language and Film Studies at The
University of Manchester.
It was at Uni I have made friends for life, I had a great time in the
film society and playing rugby. This was not only a lot of fun, but it
was crucial in developing my confidence which allowed me to
pursue a career in advertising in London.
Now I am in London, enjoying city life and doing a creative job I
very much like and this stems from my time at Tudor Grange Sixth
Form, for which I am extremely grateful.
