Anita Lall, Craven College vice principal, said it was ‘fabulous’ news for existing and prospective students. She said:”Hull University is a well renowned red brick university and is in the top five universities in the north of England. We are looking forward to widening our degree courses to meet the needs of students and employers both locally and further afield.” College Principal, Lindsey Johnson said it was planned to expand the higher education courses, including aviation, garden design and business, already offered by the college, in partnership with the university. “The lockdown has taught us that we are ahead of the field in terms of successfully supporting students both virtually and in person. This means that we can extend our reach beyond the local area and really grow our provision for those who prefer a more personalised, supportive learning environment.”
THE planned £300,000 replacement later this month of a damaged canal bridge in Skipton has fallen victim to ‘global supply issues’. Work to replace Gawflat swing bridge, involving a massive crane, and road diversions, was due to take about three weeks, starting from May 10. But, because of a delay in obtaining steel, the Canal and River Trust charity says the work has had to be put back for more than a month, and will now start on Monday, June 28. The bridge, at the entrance to Aireville Park, which ‘swings’ open to allow boats to pass along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, and ‘closed’ to give people, including schoolchildren, access to the park was damaged last year and proved difficult to repair.
What the hosts have said Steve Lowe, sales director for LocaliQ, the digital marketing arm of Newsquest, said: “As we prepare for the Education Awards, I want to congratulate everyone in the education sector for the fantastic work you have all done in what we all know have been exceptionally challenging times for teachers, governors and support staff. Back in September, delayed from the spring we ran the awards to find the best from 2019, and those stories were amazing. “Now we have the stories behind how pupils, support staff and the schools themselves are impacted by the events of the past twelve months, yet we were still able to find those that go above and beyond, and it is for these reasons we are proud to be hosting the awards once again, even though it’s virtual and not in person.
