Welcome Statement
On behalf of all the Academic and Business support staff we would like to welcome you to Brooksby Melton College.
Our aim is to provide you with an excellent service and to make your studies with us as rewarding and enjoyable as possible. If you feel there is anything we should change to enhance your learning experience, we would welcome your suggestions.
We expect you to attend all relevant classes and enter into the spirit of College life so that you develop yourself and help develop others whilst here. You can do this by making sure you participate fully in all learning activities and join in with everything the College has to offer.
The college is a strong believer in equality of treatment and opportunity and thus expects all staff and students to treat each other with respect, consideration, and dignity (as you would expect them to treat you). In this context, we would welcome any comments which help us to maintain our equality policy.
Our 3 Core values are:
We believe that our students and customers should enjoy, benefit and be successful from the time they spend with us.
We believe that all staff should contribute to improving the experience of our students and customers.
We believe the College should be an open and respectful place to work and study that promotes and rewards achievement
Each of these values we look to embrace each year with ALL staff and students alike which we hope will support you and your studies.
Finally I would like to take this
