Principal’s Welcome

Welcome to Furness College – a place where ambition meets opportunity.

As Principal, I’m proud to lead a college that sits at the heart of our community and is committed to helping every learner thrive. Whether you’re joining us from school, returning to education, or looking to gain employment through an apprenticeship, you’ll find a welcoming, inclusive environment where you’re supported to achieve your very best.

At Furness College, we believe in excellence – not just academically, but in the way we support and challenge our students to grow. Our staff are passionate, experienced, and dedicated to helping you succeed, whether your path leads to university, employment, or further training.

We work closely with local and national employers to ensure our courses – including our wide range of apprenticeships – are relevant, future-focused, and designed to give you a real edge in the world of work. Our Sixth Form offers a vibrant and collaborative learning experience, where students are encouraged to aim high and develop the confidence and skills they need to succeed.

Above all, Furness College is a safe and supportive place to study, where every learner is valued and every voice is heard. I invite you to explore what we offer and discover how we can help you take the next step in your journey.

We look forward to welcoming you.
