Michael Savage
Studied – Level 3 Agriculture
Currently – Trainee livestock buyer for ABP UK
My time at Llysfasi allowed me to further my understanding of the industry in areas that I wouldn’t have gained remaining on the family farm. Llysfasi gave me the chance to take the theory understanding taught to us, on to a productive working farm that was only a step away from the teaching block, something I believe would not be possible in other colleges. The practical understanding I gained at Llysfasi was fundamental to my learning at university as I could relate the theory work back to the college farm, as practical experience at university can be limited.
The understanding I gained at Llysfasi allowed me to move onto Harper Adams University to further my studies in agriculture and I have been extremely fortunate to gain a position at ABP Shrewsbury as a trainee livestock buyer. I am thoroughly enjoying my new position and it would not have been possible without the education and experiences gained through college and the people who supported me along the way.

Frankie McCamley
Studied – A Level English, Drama, Maths and French
Currently – Presenter and News Correspondent for the BBC
“I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do in the future, so I chose a range of different subjects to study at A Level. I’m now employed by the BBC as a Presenter and News Correspondent and studying at Yale Sixth gave me the confidence and skills to go onto university. I made some amazing friends, had some great teachers who I’ll never forget and had a great time in Wrexham!
“I look back on my time at Yale with pride and fondness and will never forget it!”
