| Testimonials |
Roehampton is beautiful! It has so much green you don't even feel like you're in the city. The PGCE course is very intense and requires a lot of hard work, but it's easy when you have so much support from tutors and mentors. The best part about Roehampton is its reputation for having small interactive classes. Living in London has been by far the most exciting and worth while experience.
