"Sean was always one of the top students in his year and we thought university was a natural avenue for him.
Then, during the sixth form he got involved in the Young Enterprise competition and did very well. He really seemed to find his passion in life, business and enterprise, and decided not to go to university.
Today, with his company SocksOn, Sean's doing very well and I'm delighted to see him doing something he loves so much. Over the past year I've watched him grow increasingly determined to make his company a success. I know that he's following his dreams and is happy."
