Meet the Placement Students

If you are considering a placement, applying for a placement or have already secured your placement we’ve included some student stories below that we hope you’ll find inspiring. Read about our students who have completed their placement, how they went about choosing what to do, what kind of work they did and how it developed skills outside of academic study.
