David Wilson Grant

In December the college were thrilled to receive notification from the David Wilson foundation that we have been granted £80,000 to develop facilities in order to build an area to enable us to deliver construction skills.  By September 2013 we hope to be able to deliver basic bricklaying, carpentry and painting and decorating as part of our Flexible Learning curriculum.  These are not the usual skills you would find in a secondary school but it will help us to continue to broaden our provision for some students who want to pursue vocational skills.  Our thanks go out to renowned businessman and local builder David Wilson who came to visit the college in September and awarded the college the grant on the basis of this visit.
