Redcar and Cleveland College put the spotlight on the hard work and commitment of its students at its annual Celebration of Achievement Awards.
With titles for each subject area up for grabs, as well as titles for the likes of higher education student of the year, adult student of the year and apprentice of the year – it is an opportunity for students across the college to shine.
Principal Jason Faulkner said: “It’s fantastic to once again be able to see everyone come together to celebrate. Our awards are an opportunity to recognise our students’ efforts and to hear about their individual stories.
“Knowing the hard work that they put in and then seeing what those achievements mean to our learners, is humbling and a reminder of why what we do here truly matters.”
For engineering student, Luke, it was certainly cause for celebration. Among the award winners on the night, the 18-year-old from Loftus was named Redcar and Cleveland College’s Student of the Year 2022.
Recognised for his hard work, commitment and enthusiasm for his studies, as well as being a true advocate of the college, he said: “It felt amazing to be nominated but to win is something else. I was flabbergasted.”
Luke is now looking forward to studying civil engineering at Teesside University.
Redcar and Cleveland College’s Celebration of Achievement Awards are supported by the Sir William Turner Foundation, a charity that, through its education foundation, aims to support activities that will enhance the education of pupils living and studying in Redcar.
