Alex, Lee and Andy holding Aico promotional board

AICO, the European market leader in home safety, came to Weston College recently to deliver industry Continuing Professional Development (CPD) training to our apprentices and full-time learners in electrical. The CPD training session delivered by Peter Price-Higgott at Weston College was met with enthusiasm from learners, who were eager to learn more.

The interactive presentation showcased AICO's range of home safety products, highlighting their advanced features and functionality. Through practical demonstrations and informative discussions, our learners gained valuable insights into integrating these devices effectively into electrical systems.

Alex Jackson, Electrical Lecturer at Weston College, said: “It was great to welcome Peter to South West Skills Campus, who delivered a fantastic session for our learners.

“Our learners relished the opportunity of hearing from an industry leader, gaining insights into real-world applications of safety products and solutions. This exposure to cutting-edge technology and best practices has enhanced their skills and improved employability prospects.

“Working in partnership with local and national companies is a key part of the student journey at Weston College, and we look forward to working closely with AICO over the coming months.”

Health and Social Care Learners Run Creative Activities at Healthy Living Centre

A group of Weston College Level 1 and 2 Health and Social Care learners recently participated in a special initiative at the Healthy Living Centre on the Bourneville. The learners demonstrated their exceptional skills and commitment by organising and leading creative activities aimed at supporting social and emotional development for the EXTEND toddler group. 

The enthusiastic learners showcased their dedication to the field of health and social care by engaging with parents and children from the EXTEND toddler group in a nurturing and supportive environment. The activities were designed to promote emotional wellbeing and facilitate social interaction among the young participants. 

Throughout the session, the Weston College learners exhibited commendable confidence and exceptional communication skills. Their empathetic approach created a warm and inclusive atmosphere, fostering an environment where children and parents felt comfortable and encouraged to express themselves. 

The creative activities encompassed various forms of expressive arts and interactive play, encouraging children to explore their emotions, develop their social skills, and express their creativity. The learners' resourcefulness and adaptability were evident as they tailored the activities to meet the individual needs and preferences of the children, ensuring a meaningful experience for all. 

This opportunity not only allowed the learners to gain hands-on experience in their respective discipline but also provided them with a valuable opportunity to observe and understand the practical application of the theories and concepts they have learned in the classroom. 

Excellent work!
