As part of Love our Colleges Week 2024, we have been catching up with a range of students about what they love about Bury College and their plans for the future.
Eva Gregg is a Level 3 Childcare student who spoke about what her plans are for the future and how the tutors have helped her reach this stage. The former Tottington High School pupil said: “The support I’ve had from my tutors has allowed me to get an offer for University and start looking towards the future.”
Benjamin Barker has recently completed his Supported Internship course and has now found permanent employment in a Data Admin role for Exchange Utilities after thriving on his internship. The former Woodhey High School pupil said: “I want to thank all my tutors who have always been really supportive of me and helping me to progress.”
Olivia Garrity is a first year Engineering student. The former St Gabriel’s RC High School pupil said she loves how the course has helped develop her passion for engineering. Olivia also has big ambitions for the future, saying: “Once I’ve finished at Bury College, I want to go to university before hopefully progressing onto a job working with environment or renewable energy.”
Christopher Gill, a former St Anne’s Academy pupil, is currently in his first year of studying Art with us. Christopher spoke about his plans for the future and thanked his current tutors. He said: “The encouragement from my tutors has really helped me to develop my skills. Hopefully, in the future, I will be working in a creative role where I can put this knowledge into practice.”
