🌿 A greener future is your future.

Where young people choose to study is about more than courses and results. It is about values. Increasingly, sustainability is one of the deciding factors in that decision, and rightly so. The organisations shaping the next generation should be thinking carefully about the world that generation will inherit.

At South Devon College, that belief is not something we arrived at recently. It is embedded in how we are governed, how we reduce our carbon footprint and how we involve our students in the process. From Green Week and community litter picks to Geopark visits and a student sustainability team that has a genuine seat at the table, our commitment is visible and ongoing.

We are proud to have been awarded the Greener Futures Award at the Torbay Business awards on Friday in recognition of that work. It reflects our ESG principles in practice, and the measurable, long-term progress we have made as an organisation.💪

"I want to help make the college and our local area a better place for future students and the next generations and make it a nicer place for everyone." - Lola, Student Sustainability Representative

Thank you to Wollens for sponsoring the Greener Futures Award.
