Higher Education
As we approach the end of the semester, we continue to deliver our Business and Travel and Tourism courses. Despite the challenges of teaching in 2021, teachers have kept students engaged with a wide variety of blended learning activities and approaches, ranging from flipped classrooms to student-led debates in Zoom breakout rooms. We are grateful to students for their perseverance and adaptability during this period, and we have been delighted to see such enthusiasm in our on site and online classes from students.
We'd like to congratulate all of the students who received their HNC certificates this month. All of their hard work has paid off, and we are extremely proud of their achievements.
