Partnerships
We have grown our links with both local and large corporate employers over many years, as well as working closely with initiatives such as ‘Inspiring the future’ and ‘Speakers for Schools’. These enable us to offer employer led activities including visits to companies, CV workshops, mentoring and career insight talks.
The College have also been proactive in being part of our local community and working with local community groups to improve access to jobs and training for our students.
Our top 5 destinations for students in 2021 for degree courses were University of Westminster, Middlesex University, Kingston University, London Southbank University and Greenwich University, with some securing places at Nottingham University, which is part of the prestigious Russell Group universities.
