Cheshire College South & West’s higher education student contract, policies & reports, student handbook and academic regulations aim to provide students with a safe and supportive environment in which to study. It is important that as a student, you know that these policies exist and their relevance to you as a CCSW higher education student.
Cheshire College – South & West is committed to widening access and participation for all prospective students and seeks to encourage access to learning by reducing barriers that some students may face when considering higher education programmes.
This is reflected in ‘Our Purpose’ statement which is ‘Nurturing talent and empowering people to achieve their full potential; supporting businesses to succeed and communities to thrive’. We are committed to ensuring all students reach their potential and leave us with the best possible outcome and career ready.
The College’s higher education provision has been developed as a result of student needs and in response to the needs of local commerce and business. The College takes an active and local lead to provide high-quality education. Please read our Access and Participation Statement.
