Employers: Did you know, 1 in 3 workers quit due to poor management?

Most managers are brilliant technical experts who never received a leadership manual. When managers struggle, productivity drops and great employees leave.

Upskill your managers! Enquire about enrolling your manager or team in our Leadership & Management course to build a high-performance culture that retains top talent. Business-tailored course options also available - contact Susan Clouston to discuss - [email protected].

A huge thanks to everyone who came along to our Hospitality Open Evening last night👩🏼‍🍳✨

It was fantastic to welcome so many of you and showcase what our Hospitality department has to offer. A special thank you to our staff and local businesses for helping make the evening such a success👏🏼

It was also a very proud moment to welcome one of our former Hospitality students, Eddie Brown, back into the kitchen — this time to deliver a cooking demonstration!
