💙 Support is here when your young person needs it.

Starting college is an exciting time, but we know that young people can sometimes experience challenges alongside their studies.

Whether they’re struggling with their mental health and wellbeing, relationships, money, learning needs, online safety or difficulties at home, they don’t have to manage it alone.

At Activate Learning, our teams are here to listen, offer support and help learners access the right help at the right time.

Parents and carers, if you’re worried about your young person, please don’t wait for things to reach crisis point before getting in touch.

Find out more about the support available and how you can contact us: https://bit.ly/3T5hS1a

🎉 Freshers’ Fair at Guildford College! 🎉

✨What a great way to welcome our new students to Guildford College!

It was fantastic to see so many students getting involved at our Freshers’ Fair this week – meeting local organisations, discovering the support, activities and opportunities available to them, and picking up plenty of freebies along the way! 🙌🎁

A huge thank you to all the organisations and services who came along and helped make the day such a success.

Freshers’ Fair is always a brilliant opportunity for students to meet new people, find out what’s available both in college and the wider community, and settle into college life.

We hope everyone had a great time – and welcome to Guildford College! 💙

🎓 What if higher education didn’t have to mean committing to a three-year degree?

The introduction of the Lifelong Learning Entitlement (LLE) could reshape how people access higher education, opening up more flexible opportunities to learn, retrain and develop new skills throughout their careers.

From January 2027, the LLE is expected to give learners greater flexibility to fund individual modules and study at colleges and universities throughout their working lives.

But greater flexibility raises an important question: could this change who gets to participate in higher education altogether?

We explore what the LLE could mean for learners, employers and education providers, and why colleges have an important role to play in making higher-level learning more accessible.

🧵 Good luck, Anna! ✂️✨

We’re delighted to see former Guildford College student Anna make it all the way to the final of The Great British Sewing Bee on BBC1! 🎉

Anna studied UAL Art with us from 2016–2018, where her creativity was already clear to see through the extraordinary range of work she produced.

It’s been wonderful watching her creativity and talent shine on screen, and we’ll be tuning in to the final next Tuesday with our fingers firmly crossed! 🤞🪡

We wish Anna the very best of luck in the final – we’re incredibly proud of all she has achieved.
