[EduCativ]

The College will take the very best bits of an and Central and put them together to create a brand new college for the city.

Nottingham College will not merely be a place where you come to study, gain a qualification, and then leave. It will be a center of excellence for teaching and learning. However, more than that, it will be a place where careers are made, a place where you will be given every opportunity to learn and develop a full range of skills for the workplace, and a place where you will be introduced to your future employers.

The newly merged College has taken the very best bits of an and Central and put them together to create a brand new college for the city.

Nottingham College is not merely a place where you come to study, gain a qualification, and then leave. It is a center of excellence for teaching and learning, but more than that....it is a place where careers are made. In this place, you are given every opportunity to learn and develop a full range of workplace skills and a place where you are introduced to your future employers.

The College is dedicated to promoting values which help to develop a strong sense of community and social and moral responsibility by:

• Creating environments which are free from discrimination, intolerance, and hate
• Challenging prejudice and stereotyping.
• Strengthening relationships by enabling and understanding of people and communities beyond our own immediate experience.
• Allowing people to be who they are without prejudice.
• Ensuring students understand the importance of respect and leave the College fully prepared to live and work in modern Britain and the world as responsible citizens.

Everyone has a role in influencing decision making at national, local, and community levels. This could include students exercising their democratic influence through forums, student council, or feedback mechanisms at Nottingham College. For example, students influence which charities to support or on developing procedures to improve their experience while at College.

This relates to an understanding of the importance of having laws and the consequence of breaking them, accepting that no one is above the law. It is about individuals understanding their rights and responsibilities as students, employees, consumers, service users, and citizens in society. At Nottingham College, this could include encouraging students to accept responsibility for their behavior, enabling them to distinguish right from wrong and respect the country's civil and criminal law.

This relates to rights and responsibilities as citizens, the right to act, believe and express oneself in a manner of one's choosing. This requires an understanding of the balance between freedom of speech and expression and the potential negative impact on others. At College, this could include enabling students to understand the impact of their behavior on others and encouraging students to become responsible individuals who actively participate in their development.
