Telford College has revealed the first new courses to be launched as part of the creation of a dedicated sixth form base in the heart of the town centre.

Graham Guest and Janet Stephens at the site of the college’s new A Level centre in Telford Town Centre, with Councillor Eileen Callear.

The theatre studies course will give students chance to explore the world of drama in both a performance and theoretical context, taking part in workshops and attending and evaluating live theatre performances. He said: “I’ve taught this in the past, and seen students progress into everything from palaeontology to teaching, plus a host of performance roles – from theatres to cruise ships. There is an incredibly wide scope for progression, which is really exciting.

Telford College’s chief executive and deputy chief executive, Graham Guest and Janet Stephens, visited the Station Quarter development to take a look at the progress of building work on site, joined by Councillor Eileen Callear, Telford & Wrekin Council’s cabinet member for education, employment and visitor economy.

“It's a testament to our collective effort, and I'm excited to see the borough's students thrive in this vibrant learning environment."
