Before starting university, I was very nervous, however excited to start. From the first day Trent made the whole experience of starting university easy and enjoyable. As someone who loves being at home, the idea of moving to a different city was very daunting, but Trent made me feel welcome. Nottingham is a great city and has many social events to attend. Additionally, the university holds many events throughout the year so that you can meet new people. I'm about to go into my third year studying Design for TV & Film, and I feel like the course has helped me to grow so much as a person, and a designer. I would highly recommend this university.

I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
