Trevor Albutt - Devon
"I'm currently on a Music Technology course at RNC and am about to add an AS level in Media Studies to my programme. I'm interested in going on to University after RNC to pursue the more technical side of music. Eventually I would like a career in making music for film or commercial venues - an aquarium is currently considering one of my pieces at the moment. RNC has given me something I couldn't have experienced in mainstream education. The course has been hands on with brilliant equipment and it has helped knowing the lecturers were in the business, so know exactly what they're talking about!"
Trevor is 19 and is registered blind he has Cortical Blindness.
