Aminata - A Level Psychology (A), Politics (B), Film Studies (B) “I am extremely excited to be starting my Politics and International Relations degree at Loughborough University. CTK has prepared me well for my next steps, and they have really supported me in following subjects that I feel so passionately about. My highlight during my time at CTK would be the friendships I made and attending Bible Study sessions, which enabled me to connect with different people across the sixth form.” A LEVEL
