STUDENTS at Conway Education Centre (CEC) have celebrated their annual celebration of achievement this week.
Lord Mayor Ryan Murphy joined over 100 students who gained their certificates in courses such as GCSE English and Maths, ICT, Digital Marketing and Social Media, Healthcare, History, Spanish, Sign Language amongst others.
Conway Education Centre manager Pauline Kersten said: “Learning can make you question things and increase your confidence to find your own answers. Learning is about so much more than doing a course; it develops new skills and interests and helps to create a compassionate, more tolerant and cohesive society.”
CEC volunteers who provide educational support to the Homework Club and English language classes were also recognised for generously sharing their skills, talents and time and making an incredible contribution to the work of Conway Education Centre.
It was fantastic join with Conway Education Centre today in celebrating their outstanding achievements.
