Coleg Gwent News

It’s been another fantastic year of WorldSkills UK competitions and results for Team Wales, with Coleg Gwent learners winning Gold, Silver, Bronze and Highly Commended across a range of skills competitions! 

Business student Hannaliese has ambitions to make it in the professional world and has already secured herself a successful summer placement with the help of the CG Ambitions team.

This year, 29 inspirational Coleg Gwent learners have made it through to the finals of WorldSkills UK, competing against learners from colleges across the country this November. 

Every year, hundreds of adult learners join Coleg Gwent to change their story through free and flexible courses. This Adult Learners Week, we met some of our mature students to hear their stories and find out why they joined Coleg Gwent this September.

Once again this year, we’re celebrating our learners who have come out on top with outstanding A Level, vocational and BTEC results. We’ve seen the best A* - C grades ever, with a 4.6% increase in A*/A grades and several learners successfully securing places at Cambridge University in September!

Our Career Colleges course is a popular choice for many learners who want to pursue a career in computer networking and digital industries, and each learner has excelled in their studies this year, setting them up for a successful future career.
