🚨 NEW REFURB ALERT! 🏗️🔨 Our newly renovated Construction workshops are ready… and so are we! 👷✨ We’re so excited to welcome our new learners to Lewisham College and see them get hands-on in our refreshed spaces. 🙌 Not enrolled yet? It’s not too late! 👀 We’re still enrolling — come and join us! 🎓

Today, we hosted a Professional Development Day for all West Lancashire College staff, providing valuable opportunities to strengthen knowledge, skills and best practice ahead of the 2026-27 academic year 😊 Colleagues took part in three key training sessions focused on areas that are essential to delivering a safe, supportive and productive learning environment. Jonny Kay led an insightful workshop on Behaviour Management, equipping staff with practical strategies to build positive relationships with learners and respond effectively to challenging behaviour. Prevent was another important focus of the day, with Tim Horbin from Lancashire Prevent Partnership delivering an engaging and thought-provoking session that encouraged staff to reflect on their role in safeguarding learners and recognising potential risks. Paula Miller's Safeguarding session further reinforced awareness of emerging risks, strengthened understanding of the Prevent Duty, and ensured staff are confident in recognising concerns, following safeguarding procedures and responding appropriately to support our learners. A huge thank you to our speakers for sharing their expertise and helping our teams prepare for a successful year ahead.

☀️ Celebrating the highlights of an incredible summer term ☀️ As another successful term comes to a close, we asked colleagues to share their standout moments from the past few months. From award-winning projects and industry partnerships to student successes, live briefs and career-changing opportunities, it's inspiring to hear the impact our staff and students have made together. These highlights are a reminder of why we do what we do – developing talent, creating opportunities and helping students realise their potential. #TalentMakers
