The development of CELT HE is so important

Neighbourhoods in Bodmin, Newquay and St Austell are within the top 10% of the most deprived neighbourhoods nationally. In North Cornwall, only 27% of 25 to 34-year-olds are in professional or managerial occupations.

There are currently no Higher Education facilities in the East and North Cornwall area and post-18 pupils are far less likely to access Higher Education. The low cohort-size courses on offer support individual progression and continuation in our community. CELT HE aims to widen access and participation by supporting and encouraging students who might ordinarily choose to leave education at 18 but have the talent to continue to a higher level.

The Student Journey

From the first day of Year 1, students work on real client set briefs, and students often continue their work with clients post-graduation. Every week students work alongside visiting lecturers, who are experts in their field, with incredible industry knowledge and accolades, including Oscars and Emmie nominations.  

The team of lecturers are dedicated professionals who are committed to helping students succeed and provide students with a well-rounded education that prepares them for careers in their chosen fields.
