An important part of the college experience is the support, guidance and help which is offered to each student alongside their time in lessons.
As part of Colleges Week 2021, we are highlighting the amazing support offered by a range of services throughout our College to ensure each student has the opportunity to thrive and succeed during their time with us.
This is part of ‘Get in’, a section of this year’s Colleges Week theme which aims to showcase all of the great things which happen in colleges every day.
