IT/Computing would be good, web designers need to have a flair for creativity and design so would be good if you do English but if it isn't your strongest point you can do a social science - sociology, psychology, religious studies or art?There's not really a prerequisite to go to uni for a web designer course besides IT/Computing but when you go for a job they will want to see evidence of creativity
