"I took both English Language and English Literature at Petroc and thoroughly enjoyed them both. I particularly loved the way in which both subjects helped me to develop skills in different areas, despite being under the same 'umbrella'.

I am now hoping to do an English Literature degree at Exeter University, thanks to the way in which college helped me rekindle my love of English.

I would really recommend the study of one or both of these subjects at Petroc - you won't be disappointed!"
