Volunteering
The student voice is an essential part of the success of the college and there are various roles in which you can volunteer to ensure your voice can be heard. The Student Forum is open to all students and provides an opportunity to share your views about your course and life as a student within the college. In addition, each tutor group elects a Tutor Representative to attend the forum to feedback opinions raised in tutorials.
The Student Council is a smaller group of students who take the views from the Student Forum, investigate the options and action accordingly. As a Student Governor you will provide the vital link between the students and the college Governors by listening to and then passing on student opinions on their college experience. There are only two Governor positions available which are hotly contested and elected by the students of the college.
As a first year student you can become part of the Hit Squad , where you have the opportunity to go back to your school and talk about your college experiences Another way you can involve yourself in volunteering at the college is by becoming a 'Very Important Person' or Student VIP . As a VIP you can take a lead on college-wide projects which may include environmental, cultural and health topics as well as acting as ambassadors for the college during local high schools visits and open days.
