Adam’s Story

Adam Haddington
BA degree in Media Writing,
Southampton Solent University
Ex-Patcham High Student
Age: 19
Adam’s Dad is a roof tiler and his Mum a teaching assistant, but neither had experience of university. Adam enjoyed Aimhigher Sussex as it planted the first seed of considering further and higher education as personal goals.
An Aimhigher residential summer school made him want to live the uni life. Although Adam hates doing his own washing he relishes the independence gained by living away from home.
His course covers everything from soap opera writing, producing and filming, to writing stage plays and experimenting with journalism. Adam dabbles in stand-up comedy and ultimately wants to become a successful screen or stage writer.
