Business and accounting students celebrate end-of-year accolades

Posted: 15 June 2022

Students on business and accounting courses at West Nottinghamshire College were applauded by their teachers, classmates, parents and principal and chief executive Andrew Cropley at their annual awards evening.

Almost 50 guests, including learners, staff and proud family members, came together for a night of celebration of the students’ hard work and dedication to their studies.

Held in the college’s Refined restaurant at the Derby Road campus, Mansfield, the event was organised entirely by level 3 business students Ava Walker, Chandler Measures, Josh Mitchell and Ellie Porter as part of the ‘managing an event’ module of their course.

There were 13 student winners on the night across a range of categories including most employable student, hardest worker, best student representative, best team player and best attendance, each nominated by their teachers.

Meanwhile, staff members Sarah Taylor and Chloe Broadhurst picked up best business tutor and best accounting tutor awards respectively, after being nominated by students in the lead-up to the awards, held on Tuesday 24 May.

  • Most Employable Student: Owen Schofield (Advanced Extended Diploma in Business)
  • Most Creative Student: Linda Kiselova (Advanced Foundation Diploma in Business)
  • Going Above and Beyond: Linda Kiselova (Advanced Foundation Diploma in Business)

“It was hosted wonderfully by staff in Refined, with catering students providing a lovely buffet, and I was extremely proud to see the four event organisers’ hard work pay off.

“All nominees and winners can feel justifiably proud of what they’ve accomplished on their courses. It was great to see so many happy faces.”
