DS has suddenly decided that he wants to go to college to do Computer Game Design rather than stay on for A Levels. I know very little about this course/career and would be grateful if anyone out there could fill me in. Is there are job at the end of it?
It seems that at degree level there is the BSc or BA option. I think he could get also onto these courses via A Levels as well as via the college BTEC route. They don't seem to mention subject requirements but the BSC appears to require maths A Level which is out of the question (we are praying for a GCSE Grade C on Thursday). We are also praying for a C in Computer Science. I am therefore not convinced this is the right course for him but there seem to be many different areas within the subject.
I am worried about him putting all his eggs in one basket but would rather he was doing something he liked rather than struggle with A Levels. He is very bright and articulate and imaginative so there might be a computer game design role for him perhaps?
