Ysgol John Bright

Life at Uni has been good so far! The start of my course at York has been really fun, incorporating app
development, digital media, and story writing. The campus is definitely a highlight, I’m living on West
Campus which has a more scenic and historic feel to it. Centered around the large lake in the middle,
the campus is bustling with wildlife. East Campus, where I have my lectures, is a 10-minute bus ride
away and has a modern, more refined charm to it.
It has definitely been worth it getting involved with societies, I have gotten involved with activities from
Technical Theatre to Archery and playing in the Concert Band. I look forward to embracing even more
challenges, forging new connections, and delving deeper into my studies!

“Moving to London for university has been the biggest change in my life. I’ve met so many new people
from all over the world and have made friends with a lot of them. I love my course, it’s challenging but
I’ve never been more interested in a subject, especially as it’s taught by world class professors. I’ve
joined the Welsh society and the UCL women’s football club to let myself have somewhere to unwind
from my studies and keep me social! Living here is vastly different from home so it’s hard not to miss
YJB and little old Llandudno.”

Throughout my time in sixth form, I was provided much support for my exams and preparing
for university life. The teachers consistently provided personal guidance if ever I had any queries
irrespective of classroom sizes in some subjects.
I would recommend any student thinking of higher education to come to Ysgol John Bright sixth form
if they appreciate personal connections with their teachers in order to achieve their aspirations.
