2021 ended with a bang at Docklands Academy! We welcomed a large and lively group of students from Algeria, who had a great time improving their spoken English and exploring a wintry and festive London. We miss you all already and look forward to more students coming from Algeria in the coming months. January begins and the English department continues its face to face provision alongside our continuing online students. Progression is being made and students are enjoying developing their language skills.
 

The start of the semester for students midway through HND courses is on Monday 10^thJan for weekday students, and Saturday 15^th Jan for weekend students. In light of the continuing pandemic, all lectures will continue blended and remain that way until further notice.

ITTM class enjoyed their field trip around Canary Wharf and Greenwich with their lecturers. 

Kenwood House has a new Christmas light trail at its stately location on Hampstead Heath running all the way through until 9th January. The trail is a ‘multi-sensory mix of light, fire and sound’, with installations, a 'light avenue', laser garden and a banging sculpture by Hannelora Johansson. At the end of the trail, there are craft stalls, street food and most importantly, a fully licensed bar selling hot booze. If anywhere in London can make you feel Christmassy, it’s Hampstead Heath. 

England has moved to Plan B in response to the risks of the Omicron variant.
