Students’ Comments.

Student T

I am really enjoying the course and the environment as there are less people and I can cope better. My tutor is friendly, patient and kind. My previous experiences at school were traumatic and unable to cope in the school environment.

Level 2 Games Design Student

My EOB experience has been overwhelmingly positive and accommodating. My complex mental and physical needs have been met and every step has been taken to make sure I am comfortable.
