Bury College is an institute of higher learning for ages 16 and above. We pride ourselves on developing skills for life in our learners across our different courses. As a college, we offer A Levels, T Levels, vocational courses, apprenticeships, foundation studies as well as university and adult courses.
Aspiring to provide the best for every student lies at the heart of all that we do. In order to help us meet that aspiration, we know our number one asset is our staff.
Attracting, developing and retaining excellent people is our primary goal. People who share the College values and support each other to deliver the College’s mission of serving its communities through education and training.
