• A levels achieving above national average.
• 100% pass rates in many subjects including further maths.
• 300 students applied to university in 2019.
• 90% were offered a place at their first choice university.
It is always humbling, and hugely rewarding, to witness the incredible achievements of our students here at Telford College.
We’ve reshaped our curriculum to meet the needs of the local business community, working in partnership with some of the area’s biggest companies – and the benefits are clear to see.
In 2019, we recorded our best-ever A level results with 100% pass rates in a host of subject areas, then followed it up with GCSE maths and English figures which were once again well above the national average. A high level of maths and English attainment is particularly important, as these are the qualifications which open up the widest possible range of higher-level course and employment choices for young people.
Our 7th Form, based on a traditional 6th form, but taking the concept to the next level – blending traditional A level courses with direct links not just to universities, but crucially to industry mentors from local companies – is proving to be a great success. Huge investment in university-standard facilities at our Haybridge campus means we offer courses which pave the way for careers in more than 70 different industries. For example, our engineering and construction programmes are helping to help tackle a skills shortage, and we’ve launched the first aviation engineering courses of their kind in the Midlands.
Our new virtual and augmented reality suite also makes us one of the leading colleges in the country for developing skills in this exciting and dynamic hi-tech sector. But cutting-edge technology is no good unless students are equipped with the basics, and that’s why we are proud to see our academic results improving year-on-year.
It means students get to hear first-hand from the people who have been there and done it, and understand the type of person they need to be to make a success of their chosen career.
Having been a lecturer myself, I’m acutely aware of the importance of delivering consistently outstanding teaching and learning, and motivating students to be the best they can possibly be. And having run my own business too, I’m equally aware of the value of delivering the sort of practical, relevant skills in step with the needs of the local economy.
There have never been so many opportunities for students, and I am honoured at having the opportunity to lead Telford College’s committed and experienced team during these dynamic and changing times. Young people in Shropshire have never had so much choice on their doorstep; you don’t need to rack up thousands of pounds of student debt to achieve your dreams.
The message is clear . . . it’s never too late to learn, and you can follow your career dreams, right here in Telford.
