Student Profile:
SIMON, from Leftwich - studying English Lit & Lang; Drama, Theatre Studies
"Sir John Deane’s has been brilliant in allowing me to push myself and have fun at the same time. The facilities are excellent for both studying and recreation, and the staff are friendly and encouraging. English Literature is a lot deeper than it was at GCSE – it has shown me that the story on the page is just one aspect to explore and I now have new ways to consider novels, plays and poetry."
