EMBRACE LEARNING AND PURSUE EXCELLENCE
Recognising Learner Growth and Excellence
We enhance our learners’ positive wellbeing and self-belief by motivating them to reach their full potential through an extensive range of opportunities. We continuously recognise and celebrate learner growth and excellence through College Assemblies, Evenings, College media and news.
