| Something to write home about |
|

As part of the International Student
Awards, young people who have come to
study at the UK's colleges, universities or
English language institutions were asked
to write 'letters home' to friends or
families.
|
|
| Entrants were asked to focus on
their wider experiences of the UK rather
than academic achievements. |
|
| Andrew King of the British Council, who
ran the competition said, 'There has been
a fantastic response. We have received
many inspiring entries highlighting the
opportunities in the UK. Some wrote about
how the UK has helped them achieve
personal ambitions or develop confidence.
Others described new skills, hobbies and
friends.' Judging is now underway and
there will be a Winners Award Ceremony
dinner at the Kensington Roof Gardens on
27 April, hosted by television presenter and
journalist, Krishnan Guru-Murthy.
