We’re celebrating our students’ achievements!

The 2020/21 academic year was another unprecedented year, but all of our students amazed us with their dedication to their studies throughout this challenging time.

Yiannis Koursis, our Principal and Chief Executive Officer, has commended 33 students who went the extra mile during the past year. The students were awarded a Certificate of Student Achievement for their outstanding accomplishments, often under difficult circumstances.

Certificates were issued to students from across the College’s course provision including vocational courses, apprenticeships, A Levels, T Levels, foundation learning and university-level programmes. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the students received their certificates by post.

“The students displayed a full commitment to achieving their aims whilst completing their studies. Each student was deserving of recognition and I’d like to congratulate them all!”
