Thank you to everyone who participated and made a contribution to last week's festive jumper week. We have collected over £100.00 for a local food bank and we will still be accepting donations this week.
We really appreciate your generosity and we wish you all a happy and healthy festive season and New Year!
AAL Team
Welcome to an new academic year!
one of our key areas of focus this year is to improve attendance in all our classes we would like to take this up from 82% to 87% this year.
We are keen to hear from you about what we can do to make classes easier to attend. For example, we are looking at enabling students to attend virtually if they really cannot attend (nothing is better than being there!).
Anyway, if you have any further ideas, please do email studentvoice@aal.org.uk, we'd love to hear from you.
Good luck with your studies with us in the year ahead, we wish you every success!
