Now part of an elite group of Further Education institutions to meet the strict criteria of training required by the Recruitment Team at Ragdale Hall, which can be found just half an hour away in Melton Mowbray, the College will be able to continue to provide the highly regarded teaching and training experience already on offer.

Reflecting on their achievement, Curriculum Manager for Hair and Beauty, Claire Springthorpe shared, “It is a massive honour to have received this award from such a prestigious spa in our local area in recognition of the fantastic work both our team and students do at College. We are all extremely proud of this achievement.”
