This month, Weston College celebrated Raising and Giving (RAG) Week with the theme of the Wild West. The themed event gave everyone the chance to organise games, activities, and raffles in support of two incredible charities: Weston Hospicecare and UNICEF. 

On Friday 6th March, as part of Women in Construction Week, Weston College hosted a Women in Construction Roundtable at our South West Skills Campus in collaboration with the West of England Mayoral Combined Authority.

Last night, we were proud to host our annual Apprenticeship Open Evening, welcoming prospective students, parents and carers to explore the exciting career pathways available through apprenticeships.

This week, Level 2 Electrical students visited the Avon Fire and Rescue Fire Station, providing them with invaluable real-world insight into fire safety, emergency response, and the critical role that firefighters play in protecting the community.

Weston College hosted the South West Regional HIP & SPARKS Competition again for the second year in a row at our South West Skills Campus yesterday, welcoming students, apprentices and lecturers from colleges across the South West of England. Students who win their regional heat will then compete for a chance to become the Learner of the Year Winner in the national Grand Final.

Throughout this term, Weston College have hosted a series of Employer Advisory Boards and Industry Forums across a wide range of sectors. These events play a vital role in ensuring the College’s curriculum remains closely aligned with current and emerging industry needs, helping learners develop the skills, behaviours and knowledge required to succeed in the workplace.
