Another proud moment as we share Nancy's journey at Keighley College 💜

After returning to education as an adult, Nancy completed the Access to HE: Social Work Diploma.

At college, the support from her tutors helped her to overcome challenges & build the confidence to progress to university.

Now in her final year of Social Work at the University of Bradford, Nancy has secured a role in Child Protection & graduates later this year.

Over recent years 'STEAM'- the inclusion of the arts into STEM principles- has dominated conversations- with the acknowledgement of shared technologies and skill sets vital to both science and liberal arts careers 🎭

Our brand new adult learning space is coming soon and we're so pleased to be sharing the space with Keighley Creative.

A new cohort of adult learners will have access to industry-standard facilities designed to develop both technical ability and our STEM7 behaviours, including an art studio, digital suites and modern classrooms.

It wasn't just competency and technical skills that got Raees noticed on his T Level placement at Lloyds Bank, it was his workplace behaviours.

As we move through assessment season here at Keighley College, we have a powerful reminder of how further education can provide transformational opportunities from people from all walks of life. ❤️

Hanna Isaievska came to the UK with her daughter in 2022 after fleeing from Ukraine, and was referred to our English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) programme.

Hanna landed a role as a Community Employability Coach here at college after gaining the UK qualifications she needed to progress, and is now an apprentice ESOL teacher. 📚

Hanna said: "At college, I was given the opportunity to continue my education, find a job and meet amazing people who are always ready to help."
