In the week when US president Joe Biden travelled to Cornwall, and the UK celebrated the arrival of summer, the further education sector basked in the glory of the Tes FE Awards.
Apprenticeship and skills minister Gillian Keegan attended the Association of Employment and Learning Providers’ (AELP) conference, and Brockenhurst College flew the Pride flag high. Meanwhile, Richmond upon Thames College celebrated former student Malachi Kirby’s success at the Baftas.
