Principal's introduction

govenor-marionplant

Grasping the chance to broaden and improve your knowledge and skills is the key to a brighter future. This has never been as important than at a time when unemployment is on the increase and prospects can sometimes seem limited.

As a large Further Education college, we have extensive partnerships with employers and universities – both regionally and nationally. We have used this experience to put together this course guide that features opportunities for study at all levels, including Higher Education, across a wide range of occupational areas. So, no matter what your starting point, we can help you gain relevant qualifications to get you back on track and into further study or into employment particularly as the economy recovers.

Our Ofsted inspection grading of ‘Outstanding’, our status as a Beacon College and our recent achievement of the Training Quality Standard (TQS) with excellence in Adult Social Care, are testament to our success in providing excellent teaching and learning to individuals, communities and employers. Our advisory services and welfare and personal support are outstanding and will be there for you before and during your course. The benefits of engaging in study are well documented. As well as acquiring new skills, you will make new friends, develop your confidence and discover new and often surprising opportunities.

I hope you find our website inspires you to explore new directions. I look forward to welcoming you into our College community.

Best wishes

Marion Plant OBE

Principal & Chief Executive
