This week we held our final Student Leader Conference of the year 💬‼️

🗣️Student Leaders across Castleford College, Wakefield College and Selby College came together to have their voices heard in regards to important issues, student experience and life at College.

The students discussed activities and clubs for the next academic year, the Student Union Constitution, Careers and Progression interventions, as well as taking part in a quiz whilst enjoying pizza and refreshments!🍕

It was great to see so many of our students passionately involved in shaping aspects of College life and we look forward to implementing their ideas next academic year.
