Our Communities
Although Grantham College serves primarily its local community which includes both students and employers, we also work with employers across the region and recruit students from a national base to our specialist Table Tennis Academy. For us, community also describes our relationship with key stakeholders such as the local Employer Representative Bodies, the Local Authorities including the new Mayor and Greater Lincolnshire County Combined Authority (GLCCA) and other education providers.
Our Core Values. STRIVE
We will support and inspire others to achieve their goals, be positive and champion the joy of learning, inclusion and social mobility. We want our students to do well, be well and learn in a protective and safe environment.
We will take collective responsibility in delivering our mission and supporting each other. We commit to work with relevant partners, including employers, to deliver our mission.
Respect for each other, valuing diversity, equity & inclusion, respecting the environment. We commit to reducing carbon emissions, waste and a careful management of scarce resources.
We commit to adapt and develop our services to ensure they remain relevant to those we serve. We will embrace new technology that empowers people, businesses and the community to learn and achieve their goals. We will educate students and communities to build a more sustainable future, develop green skills and support the creation of green businesses and jobs.
We will always be focussed on our values, mission and the people we serve, doing our best to deliver value for money for them.
