When I did I have discovered that I am Dyslexic and during my free lessons I when to the Dyslexia Institute which is just around the corner from there. As a private school goes this place is pretty good, not excellent, but good. I had a huge amount of support and care that came individually, first from the head teacher of this school and then secondly from nearly every teacher that I had teach me. And they all new mine name and everyone else's, as did the head teacher. This school is a Nursery; a primary school, secondary school and you can do your A Levels here if you are clever enough, (so to speak) where as I could not. In the end I only achieved a C in Information Computer Technology, which I was lucky to get at all. They have smart expensive school uniform; which you have to pay for and you also have to pay a large sum of money every so often. They do a lot of sport at Kings Monkton which is a school that reminds me of Hogwarts in the Harry Potter, fantasy novel series. They had a small library when I was there and the type of wood that surrounded it reminds me of Hogwarts, as does one part of the school which has a deep; oak, brown wood which made me think and dream that I was walking down the castle corridors. Overall I do recommend it as a great school to attend, if your clever than me academically you will get on fine there particularly. It also has a new, more moderner complex, which is really posh. I had private singing lessons there and you can also have private music lessons, during spare class time; which is costly pricey too, but worth it.

It is like a youngster's agency for any form of education, or any form of employment of work. They sign you up to get money from them; have your own personal adviser, to go to sessions once or twice a week with them at their centre and they take you around places to have a look at where you get a job or to train up and gain qualifications so that you then could get one. It is situated within Cardiff's city centre on Charles Street. A Street that is based in-between Marks and Spencer's and Burger King on Queen Street and at the other end of that street there is the cinema, known as Cineworld. It is not really a place to visit touristy wise, but I thought I would review it if you're travelling whilst you're unemployed at the ages mentioned. Or if you have come to live in Cardiff and are in need of help of a job within these area of ages then I recommend this place only to you. I found them very helpful and I wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't partly for them. That is I graduated from University from studying a Creative Writing degree, before that I got into Coleg Glan Hafren College in Cardiff studying a Media and Film course, thanks to the help from Youth Gate Way.
