Good to be at Furness College at the end of a very big week for them.
Their role as one of five national Defence Technical Excellence Colleges confirmed. Over £400k new investment confirmed to improve their buildings and facilities.I met with principal and CEO Scott Cubitt to hear about their ambitious plans and to get an update on the proposed merger with Blackpool and the Fylde College.
A strong further education college is vital for the future growth and prosperity of this area. There is lots going on behind the scenes to get Furness College back on track and deliver that.
