“My two years at college went by so quickly. You never get that time back. I would tell my former self to enjoy every day, not to worry about the future and keep working hard because it will all work out.”
If you are a former student of St John Rigby College, we want to hear from you!

I had a great experience at SJR. I met a lovely bunch of people and made so many friends. I wouldn’t have achieved the grades I did without the tutor advice and support. Thank you.
