Introduction

 

Safeguarding is at the heart of this college and we place a high value on encouraging an environment of mutual respect and tolerance in our learning community.  Anti-bullying workshops took place last week and learners told us they benefitted from discussions on how to stay safe and who to contact to report incidents of bullying and harassment. 

 

We are ambitious for our learners and want them to achieve the very best outcomes and this is reflected in our Career Ready Standards.  Research firmly indicates that excellent attendance equals excellent results.  Your success is achieved through attending all classes  including English and Maths.  Fast forward to June and predict your outcome through your attendance percentage.  Your future is in your hands so make sure you are present, on time and ready to learn.  Bursaries are currently being allocated and this support will be based on a 90% attendance target each month after the first payment.

 

 

"Ambition is the desire to go forward and improve one's condition. It is a burning flame that lights up the life of the individual and makes him see himself in another state. To be ambitious is to be great in mind and soul."
Marcus Garvey

LDCS

To reiterate the importance of Literacy, this week’s LDC session will recap on SPAG- Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar. The session will have a clear focus on evaluating how your assignments are marked, how SPAG is used and the opportunity to proof read and mark some topical articles.

The Walcott Foundation will be offering grant application support in C101, 1-3pm on Wednesday 23rd November.

Student Union

To Recognise Anti-Bullying Week the Student Union launched a poster campaign which involved learners and staff having their photos taken with Anti-Bullying slogans and put up on a display in the college reception. This campaign was to reiterate that the college takes a zero tolerance stance to any form of bullying and to re enforce that any concerns should be reported to your LDC or college Safeguarding team.
