Formative Statment

Where have you come from? Where are you now? Where are you going?

Since leaving school I enrolled at Wakefield College to study Information Technology Foundation whilst working part time at a local supermarket. After a year I passed the course then got offered to go onto the next year (Intermediate in Information Technology) in which I took and enrolled whilst being kept employed in my job doing part time hours. I also passed the 2nd year of College and got the opportunity to study at the advanced level which I did think about but I also got offered full time work at the supermarket where I worked part time. I took the job opportunity, I worked my way up to become a fresh food supervisor and after 4 years working full time I decided I needed a fresh challenge, so I decided to try and get into Admin work. I found it quite difficult to first get started in admin but after a couple of months I got given a chance at a furniture store. I enjoyed my time there but found it not the kind of work I was looking for.

After the company became bankrupt I found myself out of work, in which I started working for various agencies and after nearly 2 months I became employed full time again in admin, and I also enrolled onto a basic web design course in which I really enjoyed as I always had a keen interest in art and design. So I starting looking into college courses to get more educated in web design, after finding the course that I am studying of now (Interactive Media) I gave my notice into work and enrolled on the course.

As of now I am enrolled onto the interactive media course, and would like to see myself in 2 years time passing the course well and gaining employment in becoming a web designer but I haven’t ruled out going to university at the end of the course, I’ll just see how the course goes.
