Colin was a full-time Bar Person in January 2011. By June 2011, the graduate from Biological Sciences had secured a place on a PGCE starting in the September of 2011. When questioned about his motivations for the bar work in January of that year, Colin replied that he had worked in the bar prior to university and it was a way of saving up for travelling before starting the PGCE.

Colin acknowledges that he didn't approach his career planning until after university but did have some sort of teaching placement whilst studying and enjoyed it and from this stemmed the idea for a career in teaching.

Colin's advice to current students is decide what you want to do and then find out the options around that.
