The people

Centre staff and students are really warm and friendly. Students come from many different backgrounds and cultures and there are around equal numbers of young people and adults.

Our staff are dedicated to supporting your progress, some have been with us for many years and others have come to us more recently from successful careers in industry. All take great pride and pleasure in students' achievements.

We have very good links with employers to support work-related learning and to make sure our students get the best employment opportunities.

Students are encouraged to work hard but to have fun while they learn too, so we organise outings and events throughout the year.

Student profile

Lily Corrigan

I try to enjoy everything to the best of my ability so that I don't miss out on anything when I'm learning, says Lily, who is on the Health and Social Care BTEC First Diploma. I like the Centre for Health, Social and Child Care because it's a fun place to be and there are plenty of tutors to help you get what you want when you're studying a course. They've always helped me to understand if there's any improvements I can make with my work and I've always felt able to ask for help if I'm struggling.
