Some examples of trips that have taken place recently are:

Student Ambassadors and the Student Voice

We hope that you will want to get fully involved with College life, and you may want to become a Student Ambassador. You will be joining a group of students who will become involved in special events and marketing activities.

You will also be representing the student body by meeting with senior leaders to ensure that the views of students are taken into consideration at every level of College management. It is your College, so the ‘student voice’ is important to us.

Being a Student Ambassador also gives you the opportunity to become a student governor and represent the student body in an official capacity on our board of Governors.
