What our students and tutors say: I liked woodwork at school but this programme opened my eyes to other careers like quantity surveying.

I did work experience then my tutors helped me to secure a trainee role with Holden and Lee, who are now paying for me to do a degree. - James Bleakley, Construction and The Built Environment As a former student of B&FC I know through experience that the College is an excellent establishment, with a wonderful sense of community and exceptional staff and facilities.
