What our students and tutors say: I’m really enjoying it – we’ve been to Alton Towers, the Manchester Markets and next year there’s a trip planned to Spain. I’ve learnt skills such as customer service and teamwork, and my part-time job at a holiday park counted towards my work experience. I want to stay on here now and do the tourism management degree. - Hope Chapman, Level 3 Travel and Tourism Helping students to recognise and then achieve their potential is what motivates me. Colleagues have the same approach and the sense of teamwork and purpose is the best I have known anywhere. Beverley Heinze, Lecturer - Beverley Heinze, Lecturer Prev Next
