Student Voice and Enrichment
At Stamford College we take the views and opinions of our students very seriously. We see the benefit of allowing our learners to have an opportunity to shape the organisation in which they choose to study. Gathering feedback from our students is one of the most effective ways we can improve the College for all!
When you enrol at the Col­lege all of our stu­dents auto­mat­i­cal­ly become part of the Stu­dent Union. Every year an Exec­u­tive Com­mit­tee is elect­ed by the entire stu­dent body to act on behalf of, and with oth­er stu­dents in the Col­lege rep­re­sen­ta­tion forums; such as the Stu­dent Council.
It is not all busi­ness though as the Stu­dent Union Exec­u­tive Com­mit­tee are also respon­si­ble for the fun stuff that goes on at Col­lege as well! Social events, trips and char­i­ty fundrais­ing all fall under the Stu­dent Union remit so if you decide to run in the elec­tions to become part of the Com­mit­tee or not, there’s nev­er a dull moment at Stam­ford Col­lege! The Stu­dent Union Com­mit­tee also man­age their own bud­get to spend on ben­e­fit­ting every­one who stud­ies at the College.

At Stam­ford Col­lege we believe that all young peo­ple have the right to an edu­ca­tion, regard­less of what is hap­pen­ing at home.
We know that the move from School to Col­lege can be chal­leng­ing for many stu­dents as well as excit­ing. How­ev­er, we recog­nise that young car­ers face dif­fer­ent issues and want dif­fer­ent lev­els of sup­port. The Stu­dent Ser­vices Team includes peo­ple who are here to help and sup­port with this move to College.
Guid­ed by you, we can work with your Stu­dent Men­tor and your lec­tur­ers to ensure that they are sen­si­tive to your needs. You can access a range of sup­port from our Young Car­ers Cham­pi­on (our Stu­dent Engage­ment and Wel­fare Advi­sors) which includes our Termly Young Car­ers

As a result of our con­tin­u­ous com­mit­ment in the pro­vi­sion of sup­port to Young Car­ers at Stam­ford Col­lege, we have been accred­it­ed with a Lin­colnshire Car­ers Qual­i­ty Award which aims to pro­mote a vari­ety of ways we can iden­ti­fy, engage, respect and sup­port our young car­ers in Col­lege, award­ed by every​-one​.org​.uk ​
