College earns plaudits after recruiting students from 40 countries
A college which has recruited students from 40 different countries has been nominated as a finalist in the European school category of a study travel award scheme.
As a finalist, Acton Burnell-based Concord College will have a representative at the StudyTravel Secondary School Awards ceremony in London at the end of the month.
According to StudyTravel, the peer-voted ST Secondary School Awards celebrate outstanding secondary education providers and the contribution they make to the education industry as a whole.
Bethan Norris, senior editor at StudyTravel, said: “This year’s ceremony focuses on the secondary school market which was a growing sector before Covid-19.
“This sector has proven to be resilient in the face of international lockdowns over the last two years.
“While video conferencing on StudyTravel Network has done a tremendous job keeping us all together and in touch over the past two years, we are so looking forward to meeting face-to-face with all of our finalists.”
Concord’s admissions registrar, Mrs Wendy Hartshorne, said: “We are extremely proud of the admissions and marketing team in building – and maintaining – trustworthy and long-term relationships with our educational agents and representatives.
“These strong relationships enable Concord to recruit a diverse range of academically focussed students from over 40 different nationalities, globally, who fit the values and ethos of the college."
