Marie’s story
In September 2021, second-year international student Marie swapped south west Germany for south west England when she began studying at Norland.
“I chose Norland because it’s the best place to train to become a professional nanny and get amazing, high quality education. It is the perfect fit for me. I get to apply my theoretical knowledge into practice immediately through the combination of the Norland diploma and degree.
“Norland has the best support for students in my opinion from every institution I’ve experienced. Norland has been amazing. I have a whole support team behind me. Every student has a personal tutor, the International Student Manager helps you settle in, sets up everything you need but also supports you throughout your studies.
“If somebody was considering Norland I’d say do it. Take the leap. Move to a different country. It’s so worth it. I enjoy every second here. You get such an amazing education and get supported so well. It was the best decision I ever made!”
