“Being at sixth form prior to BCE, I felt my creative urges were not being fulfilled. When I moved over to study Media I instantly felt at home. Not only did the college give us the tools and knowledge to succeed, they prepared us for life as creatives of the future. The atmosphere was unlike any other, combining practical experiences with our curriculum, like my first Vogue debut! I’m now a successful photographer and videographer working with The Big Shot, Disney and Vogue. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at BCE and I thank them for all the support they gave me.”

GeorgiaFormer BCE Student

“I studied Creative Media at BCE, which was a great experience. I met up with like-minded individuals and we supported each other. The course really helped me understand the different roles and aspects of the media industry and it taught me multiple skills that I can use in my future.”
