After Sixth Form, she attended the University of Derby, to study Creative Expressive Therapies, specialising in Dance, and graduated with First Class Honours. After this, she pursued a PGCE. As a graduate during the COVID pandemic, job hunting was initially a challenge; however, she applied for and secured a job with NovaCity as a Youth Worker. Here she has been able to Creative Expressive Therapies (CET) workshops for students from Y7-11, who weren’t suited to mainstream education.

Over time, Bethany has advance in her positions to Assistant Manager, then her current position of Provision Manager and Curriculum Lead. In this position she plans curriculums to national standards, but focusing on SEMH and SEND needs; alongside teaching GCSE Sports Studies and leading CET workshops.

Her journey reflects her commitment to helping others, continuous learning, and adapting to new challenges.

However, four months in realised that he wanted to go down a Coaching route. This meant dropping out and either staying in Newcastle or returning to Rotherham. He chose to return to Rotherham, and took on a job as a waiter in the mean time.

He then found a job as a Metals Processor, and this is where his current career started. In his three years there, he has progressed up to Material/Alloys Tester and found a love of Chemistry. The role in this industry has also meant he has been able to visit multiple places around the world with work, including Asia, Australia and USA.

Whilst at university, Alex completed several work experience placements, including at a planning consultancy, and with a neighbourhood planner. She also undertook several research projects during her summers via the university. All the extra-curricular experience gave Alex a head start when it came to interviews and job offers after graduating with Upper-Second Class Honours. 

After this, Alex accepted a job with a planning company in Skipton. She says the company and job are very interesting and unique. She completes a range of jobs within her role, including (most recently) due diligence for one of the clients of the company.
