Hide AdAfter his GSCEs, Scott McClelland from Coleraine opted to do a BTEC Level 3 in Music – a course which is the equivalent standard of three A-Levels and offers aspiring musicians the freedom to develop as performers and composers, while also exploring the latest in music production techniques.
Having successfully completed the course, Scott was one of the first to apply for the new HND in Music.
“The music industry is amazing and offers so many different opportunities depending on what your own particular interests are,” said Scott, who plays the guitar and drums. He also provides vocals and writes some of his own material.

He added that even though a lot of the teaching was online because of Covid restrictions and missed out on performing in the end of year shows, he really enjoyed the course.
“We had a lot of freedom to develop our skills and I made some great friends so I would have no hesitation recommending it.”
