Bury College Art students celebrated in Yinka’s Challenge
Our talented Art and Design students recently received recognition for their artwork after entering a nationwide arts and crafts competition.
We are so proud of the Bury College T Level students that have become the first cohort to complete the qualification. They have already begun to look towards the future.
On the Childcare and Education T Level, 100% of our students achieved a Distinction. One of those was Megan Connolly. The former Tottington High School pupil will now be completing an apprenticeship with Greater Manchester Police. Megan, who has aspirations of becoming a Child Protection Officer, said: “My time at Bury College has been amazing, the tutors were great, and I’m really excited about my future.”
Chloe Murphy also thrived on her T Level in Childcare, and she is now moving on to Edge Hill University to study Primary Education with QTS. She loved her time with us and spoke about how her placement improved her knowledge of the subject area. The former Phillips High School pupil said: “The placement I undertook at a local Primary School gave me a unique experience that allowed me to further develop my skills.”
Grace Van Der Kamp studied a T Level in Health. The former St Monica’s R.C High School pupil has loved her time at Bury College and has dreams of becoming a Paramedic. She said: “The course and the College as a whole have helped me to become a lot more confident and made me feel a lot more prepared for the future.” Grace also spoke about how her placement at Fairfield Hospital helped develop her skills, she added: “My placement was an amazing experience and I learned so much.”
