“I chose Queen’s College for its beautiful campus and outstanding academic results, and it has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. Coming from Hong Kong, I’ve had incredible opportunities here, becoming both a Sixth Form and boarding prefect, developing a love for sport, and preparing to study it at university with my teachers’ support.

But beyond academics, Queen’s has given me a true home away from home. My house parents, Mr. and Mrs. Cooling, have always been there for me, offering guidance and encouragement when I have needed it most. I’m very grateful to have had the opportunity to go to school at Queen’s College.”

“Queen’s College is a fantastic place to study. The supportive teachers and welcoming boarding environment have made my experience truly enjoyable. I’m currently in Year 13, preparing for my A Levels, and I especially love studying Business Studies.

After Queen’s, I plan to go straight to university to study Business Management and Marketing. The Queen’s Diploma Programme has been invaluable, helping me develop essential life skills like CV writing, interview techniques, and presentation skills. It has really prepared me for my university applications and my future career.”
