I left school about 20 years ago but I’m back doing my GCSE’s again.  I was in the first year to do the new GCSE; I remember lots of people saying it would not last, but looks like it has…

Anyway, about a year ago I decided to do a simple course in Astronomy to get a basic grounding and possibly wet my appetite for further study at much higher levels.  I have a B.Eng in Electronic Systems & Information Engineering, the motivation of which was to get a job as opposed to further my understanding of something I was interested in;  I’d love to do the same but for something I could put my heart into i.e. Astronomy.

I started the GCSE course with The Planet Earth Centre last year and due to having to gain some critical career based qualifications I’ve only managed to complete one assignment all though I did get 97% The good thing about this course is they let you study at your own pace.

I now have more time to spend on my Astro study; if you are studying the same course why not leave a comment.

Until the next post… Clear Skies!
