✨ Myth-Busting Monday! ✨

Myth: “Vocational courses don’t prepare you for real careers.”

Reality: Vocational courses are built with employers and industry experts - meaning what you learn is exactly what the workforce needs. With hands-on placements and real-world assessments, you’re not just learning… you’re getting career-ready.

We are incredibly proud of our students Charlie Davey and Oliver John Cage, who took part in the Tycoon Business Competition and successfully brought their business idea to life.

After securing a small start‑up loan, they created and sold oyster shell candles and jewellery holders, making a £97.63 profit through sales at college and Ipswich market. Despite facing challenges along the way, they demonstrated resilience, teamwork and strong entrepreneurial skills throughout.

A fantastic achievement and a great example of how our students develop real‑world business experience.
