One Message, Different Voices

Take a look at this powerful film made by the staff of Weston College to show how important it is for everyone from different backgrounds to be included. The film shares heartfelt stories and interviews with a diverse group of staff, showing how accepting different identities and backgrounds can make a big difference. Its purpose is to encourage viewers to think about their own biases and work towards making our community more welcoming to all. We invite everyone, regardless of their background, to join us and be a part of our journey toward a more inclusive future.

Our workplace champions the right of staff to embrace all Afro-hairstyles. We acknowledge that Afro-textured hair is an important part of our Black employees’ racial, ethnic, cultural, and religious identities, and requires specific styling for hair health and maintenance. We celebrate Afro-textured hair worn in all styles including, but not limited to, afros, locs, twists, braids, cornrows, fades, hair straightened through the application of heat or chemicals, weaves, wigs, headscarves, and wraps. In this workplace, we recognise and celebrate our colleagues’ identities. We are a community built on an ethos of equality and respect where hair texture and style have no bearing on an employee's ability to succeed.

We caught up with ESOL learner Mohammed, to share his story and ask him about the impact that the course has had on him.

"When I first moved to England, I couldn’t really speak much English, with Arabic being my first language. However, my desire to learn the English language brought me to Weston College, where I could learn, grow, and connect with the community and people from diverse backgrounds.

"The ESOL course at Weston College has really supported me. It has provided me with the tools and resources to improve my English skills. The classes are well-structured, and the teachers are dedicated to helping students succeed.

"We have a lot of fun in college, and I always look forward to coming to class.

"One of the best bits is the great trips we go on. We have done several different things and experienced different industries to help me pick the right course after this one – we even went to the police station.

"The teachers at Weston College are incredible. They are not only knowledgeable and skilled, but they teach everything in an easy and understandable way. They are super helpful too, even with things outside of college.

"This course has helped me to build my skills and grow my confidence with speaking English too. In September I want to start my career in marketing and will be looking for an apprenticeship.

"If English isn’t your first language, and you want to improve, then I think you should definitely study this course. It is a great course and has been the best choice for me to settle into the community and offer my skills to an employer."
