Student profile

Amber Wheatley, Virgin Islands
Amber is studying A Levels and plans to study Medicine at University. 

"Since I came here I have developed so much as a person. I have become more confident and outgoing; I am more willing to try new experiences and can do things I would never have dared to do before.

The teachers are really friendly and outgoing. They’ve really helped me with my confidence – it’s impossible to be shy at CATS! 

They have supported me to achieve my goals too – helping me to complete the UCAS application process and helping me to find work experience at the hospital."
