It is always great to see the next generation coming through the door at The Halston for work experience. Too often I hear negative stereotypes of young adults…. Same phrases I was hearing when I was leaving school many years ago. But today’s student from Carlisle College was brilliant and really engaged with all the tasks she worked on.

Yesterday I visited Carlisle College to meet Principal, Sarah McGrath and tour the college’s very impressive facilities. We had a useful discussion about the challenges facing Further Education, particularly the inflexibility of current funding arrangements. Our FE colleges are increasingly stretched, and the government policy often means funded programmes don’t align with skills needs. Labour will simplify the funding landscape for colleges to better enable them to deliver on local skills needs and priorities.
Dawn Hughes, Careers & Learner Experience Manager was delighted to drop off a special delivery to Up Holland High School last week - a hydroponic growing system with solar pump! 😃 Pupils had built the system at a Low Carbon Event they attended at the college a few weeks earlier and will now be able to grow seedlings in school thanks to their creation – well done everyone, some great work to help us save our planet! ⭐ Find out more about the Low Carbon day! ⭐ https://www.westlancs.ac.uk/news/west-lancashire-college-partner-with-local-companies-to-host-low-carbon-event/

Ali, Shannon and Lyn enjoyed delivering a presentation to students from Newcastle College at the Grand Hotel Gosforth Park Newcastle last week, all about inclusive events! Students found the talk very interesting and are using what we delivered to implement into a project they are doing in College. Inclusivity is important so that everyone is able to access a party or event, no matter their needs or differences💜 #inclusion #acceptance #truecolourstheatre #newcastlecollege
