Testimonials

"I can't thank the staff at Bottle Green enough for giving me the opportunity and support to achieve my dream of becoming a qualified RVN. As an older student, I had a lack of self-confidence in returning to education and now I eventually wish to do further education in advanced veterinary nursing. The college offered emotional and learning support, allowing me to feel comfortable when in classes. The college also helped me with professional and personal issues that gave me the opportunity to continue with the course when I really considered giving up. Every teacher that I had the pleasure of learning from, taught with passion, which made me feel more motivated, and even when they pushed us to achieve, they did so in a supportive manner.
Thank you Bottle Green for giving me this opportunity!" Kirsty
