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.
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.
Oliver Peacock, a former Applied Science student who has just graduated with a 2:1 in physics recently got in touch to tell us about his journey to studying at a PhD level.
This October, the College is celebrating Black History Month. In support of the campaign, I. Stephanie Boyce recorded a video to share her journey and inspire the College's students and staff to never give up on a goal.
Henrietta Lowen-Cooper, a former HND Sport Student, has started her exciting career this September. At the age of 22, Henrietta has secured a position as a Primary School Teacher. Having realised that exams and school were not for her, she got in touch to tell us how swapping to College was the right path for achieving her aspirations.
Declan Avery is an Independent Living student at our Wycombe campus, who showcased his incredible model of a city, constructed from paper. Declan named the city 'Decopolis'.
Declan spent several months on this creative project and explained how "each building had to be measured precisely, drawn, printed and cut carefully. Folding the paper into the right shape was very tricky and needed a lot patience."
Taking part in a First Aid course can be nerve-racking at the best of times, and with the added concerns regarding COVID-19, the temptation to put the training at the bottom of our ‘To Do list’ is greater than usual, but put it off no longer.
It has been out with the old and in with the new at Amersham's TV Studio. The team have been working hard all summer to ensure it was ready for this September. The studio has been fitted with the lateset industry-standard equipment, to allow our Students to gain the most up-to-date experience, preparing them for their future careers in the Television and Film industry.
