On the 26th and 27th of October, ten of our Level 1 and 2 Art students, and their tutor, Lorraine Hockley, braved the elements to take part in the first community art project of the academic year.
Our Level 3 Business students were given the challenge of creating an internal digital marketing campaign to promote anti-bullying week and increase awareness about the effects of bullying and how to report it. Students created a multitude of content, including; slideshows for the TV screens across the three campuses, Youtube videos, TikTok videos, as well as digital posters.
Morgan, Liah and Jess are FdA Musical Theatre students at Bucks College Group and second year students at Bucks New Uni. One of their modules required them to devise a community, so together they set up an outreach project aimed at spreading awareness of the negative effects that social media can have, called Keeping it Social. Keeping it Social highlights the severity of cyber bullying and the detrimental effects it has on many young people, encouraging people to think twice before saying or posting something.
In 2018-2019, a pilot Nurse Cadet programme was offered to a few students from our Wycombe campus. The Nurse Cadet programme was designed to offer our Health and Social Care students, with aspirations towards Nursing or Allied Health Care professionals, a chance to experience these roles for real, before going to University to continue their training.
We are very pleased to announce that Joe Dixon, a Level 2 Electrical Installation student at our Aylesbury campus, won SPARKS Learner of the Month for October.
Joe entered the competition by submitting a picture to SPARKS magazine of a 3 socket radial circuit, simulating connection to a consumer unit, using Twin and CPC cables.
Throughout Black History Month, our Level 3 Fashion Retail students have been busy researching how fashion brands are responding to the issue of equality and diversity. They each wrote their own blog about what brands are doing and how this can inspire other brands to follow in their steps. We are so pleased to see our students reflecting on such an important issue and relating it to their industry. To ensure we could share everyone's blogs, we have compiled excerpts from each.
