college nurseriesThe College has two nurseries, providing limited places for students’ children, prioritising children aged 2-5 years. The nurseries are based at the Centre for Business, Arts and Technology on Camden Road and the Centre for Lifelong Learning in Finsbury Park.

In March 2012, our Camden Road Nursery joined the Islington Register of Good Practice, and its outdoor play area was recognised in particular for its role in supporting children’s learning. With a multi-sensory garden, it provides opportunities for children to dig and grow healthy foods in a small space.

Both College nurseries have recently been inspected by Ofsted and graded as Good. Ofsted said “The overall quality of teaching is good and some is outstanding. Staff provide a varied and interesting range of activities, both indoors and outdoors, that are based on children’s interests. As a result, children make good progress in their learning and development.”

Ofsted also commented, “There are excellent systems in place for working in partnership with parents and other professionals. These links make a very positive contribution towards the continuity and support children receive in their care and learning.”

Studied: Teaching – Access to Higher Education Diploma

Destination: Roehampton University to study a BA in Teaching

Andrew Reedie was working as a performing arts teacher and a PA in Mayfair before he decided he wanted a career change.

After hearing about the Access to Higher Education Diploma at City and Islington’s Centre for Lifelong Learning, he enrolled and after a year of study he has been made an offer by Roehampton University to study a degree in Teaching.

He said: “As soon as I started the course I was treated with respect and like an adult. My teachers planned their lessons well and have been very supportive. I had not written

an essay since I was 16, but with catchup sessions with my tutor I was able tobuild up my skills and confi dence as theyear progressed.

“Finding out about the 24+ Loans really helped me believe that it was all possible. They are really easy to apply for and navigate and provide that extra motivation to make the most of your lessons.”

Thijaya, 20, grew up near an airport and from a young age was fascinated by planes.

“I always loved materials and aerospace, and one day I want to train to become a pilot.

“A friend of mine recommended the College, so I enrolled to study Applied Science before progressing to the Extended Diploma in Engineering.

“I’ve really enjoyed putting the theory we learn into practice. The facilities are fantastic and there are brand new workshops where we can use industry-standard laser machines, computers and 3D printers.”

Asked why she thinks women don’t traditionally pursue careers in engineering, she said:

“There are lots of misconceptions. Girls think Engineering means you want to become a car mechanic. But the industry is so broad, with so many opportunities. Engineering is all about ideas and the team work needed to execute those ideas.”

Thijaya completed a summer work placement organised by the College at global satellite communication company, Inmarsat. She said: “This was an eye-opening experience and really related to the aerospace engineering career that I want to pursue.”
