Breaking Barriers and Building Futures! We welcomed inspiring young women from Berkeley Group, who shared their personal journeys into the construction industry in celebration of International Women's Day. From apprenticeships to balancing university studies, they showed our students just how exciting, diverse, and rewarding a future in construction can be. Their stories highlighted a powerful message: with determination and the right support, anything is possible. Thank you to the Berkeley Group team for empowering the next generation of women in STEM and construction. #WomenInConstruction #WomenInSTEM #BerkeleyGroup #Apprenticeships #SouthwarkCollege

Helping our students feel confident and prepared for exam season 📚 Recently our students from across the college took part in Exams Mastery workshops delivered by Positively You. The sessions were packed with practical revision techniques, from mind mapping and visualisation to time management and resilience building. The workshops were a huge success, with all students learning at least one new revision technique and many discovering several new ways to study. A big thank you to Jay from Positively You and our English, Maths and Student Experience teams for making the day such a positive and engaging experience for our students.

In celebration of World Plumbing Day, we’re delighted to have Michael as our Plumbing lecturer, supporting our students as they develop the practical skills and knowledge needed for successful careers in the plumbing industry 🥰 On our Level 2 Plumbing course, students build the foundations of the trade by learning key topics such as health and safety, plumbing processes, cold and hot water systems, sanitation, drainage and central heating systems. The course combines theory with hands-on training using specialist equipment, preparing learners for apprenticeships, further study, or employment in the industry. After retiring from rugby, Michael began teaching in 2008. Speaking about his passion for the role, he said: "I enjoy working with young adults. When I was training to be a plumber, I really appreciated the teaching style, and I want to provide our students with that same strong foundation as they begin their careers." ⭐ Apply today! ⭐ https://orlo.uk/OGOKi

For #CollegesWeek, we’re celebrating the incredible journey of Louise O’Neill and her inspiring progression at Kidderminster College Louise began her studies in Level 2 Work-Based Animal Care and has worked her way through Level 3 and Level 4 - and she’s now thriving in Level 5 Animal Management. Next year, she’ll take the next exciting step towards Level 6 to achieve her Bachelor’s degree! Choosing to study Higher Education at Kidderminster College has helped Louise build both her qualifications and her confidence. With the support of her tutor, she’s grown in self-belief and continues to push towards her goals. Through her course, Louise has stepped outside her comfort zone - developing confidence in presentations and debates, gaining valuable insight into the animal care industry, and becoming more assured when working with animals. Although she originally planned to go into zookeeping, her ambitions have evolved. Louise is now considering a future in animal therapy or working as an animal care assistant with the RSPCA - driven by her passion for making a difference in animals’ lives. We can’t wait to see where her journey takes her next! 🌟 #CollegesWeek
