It was such a wonderful experience attending University of Sunderland. After putting up with the…read moreconstant testing and challenges of US Schooling, University in Sunderland was so nice and easy. DO not think I am saying the system did not teach. It does. But it taught in a much more relaxed manner than I was used to. See....I was always told that UK schools were so much harder than US ones. I found it just the opposite. Instead of constant tests and shoving tons of information down your throat because it's written that you must do things that way, England UNI was much more laid back. They cared more about you learning how to do things than about memorizing 4000 dates per class. I even got to go drinking with my professors a few times. I loved my time here. I also loved the local theatre that let exchange students work without permits because it gave me some pocket money and a chance to see the WONDERFUL John Inman before he passed. It was seriously the most wonderful and memorable time of my life until I moved to New Orleans, US. Thank you all.

I attended this primary school from year 2 up to year 6 and all my memories from it with it's productions especially the nativity productions as It was just amazing to watch. I currently help out in my secondary school but wouldn't think twice about going back to help there if I got the chance. I have been back occasionally over the past few years and it still maintains a lot of the feeling that was present back then. Overall it is a great school and it deserves great ratings.
