They all credit their Computing tutors for their “amazing support” throughout a challenging year, with Deputy Head of School for Business and Professional, Ben saying: “The students have been fantastic and so hard working. It’s been a pleasure to teach every one of them and I wish them all the best – they’ll be brilliant!”
