Aphra Brandreth, the newly-elected Member of Parliament for Chester South and Eddisbury, has visited Reaseheath College as it celebrates the successes and achievements of its staff and students.
Aphra Brandreth MP has visited Reaseheath College to meet with the principal, Mr Marcus Clinton and enjoyed a tour of the campus, including exciting new projects that will help to expand Reaseheath’s already significant course offering and deliver quality, high-technology teaching.
Reaseheath College is one of the UK’s leading land-based and technical colleges, serving approximately 2,1500 further education and 500 higher education students and approximately 1,000 apprentices. The College consistently provides a strong educational and vocational foundation to students, of which over 94 per cent progress into a positive destination such as employment or further study. Thanks to a strong relationship with local schools, businesses and employers, the College continues to be a leading destination for higher and further education and apprenticeships in Cheshire and across the country.
Following the visit, Aphra Brandreth, Member of Parliament for Chester South and Eddisbury said:
“I was delighted to visit Reaseheath College and to meet with the principal, Marcus, and his team. They are doing an excellent job and building on the College’s successes and I am excited about the future for this academic year and ahead. I was able to see the growth that continues to take place across the campus, including new construction and horticulture facilities and it was great to learn about how the College maintains its excellent relationship with key stakeholders in our constituency and further afield. I was able to speak with students as well as staff who are incredibly positive about the College, their involvement in the direction it takes and the career prospects it offers.
“I am looking forward to working closely with Marcus and his team during my time as the local MP and I will continue to champion them as one of our constituency’s best assets in Parliament.”
