Blackpool and The Fylde Students University Challenge

Blackpool and The Fylde Students University Challenge

Blackpool and The Fylde College is urging students struggling to decide on their university options to get in touch!

With many people worried about securing higher education places because of the recent changes to exam grading, tutors are reassuring students that it’s not too late to apply for courses starting this year.

The college said its blended learning approach - vibrant online learning supported by face-to-face teaching with smaller class sizes - is appealing to many people during the virus pandemic.
