About Us

I’m so proud to be the principal of such a well-established, caring and aspirational college. I studied at a college just like this one and it was one of the best times of my life. Our aim is to help you maximise your potential. 

We have amazing resources and spaces including a fantastic new Engineering and Manufacturing Technologies building and a Digital Transport and Logistics Academy. We also have fabulous places to learn everything from art and design to sport, health and social care to animal management. 

We have great links with local and national employers to help make sure that what you learn is right up to date with lots of opportunities to learn in the real world.

At Boston College, we want you to get more than simply gaining a qualification (which is really important, of course!) College should also give you chance to learn about yourself, who you are and what you want to be. 

It's about meeting new people - our dedicated and experienced teaching team, our fantastic support staff and of course the chance to share your journey with other students. 

It’s about building your skills not only in your specialist area but also the wider skills that you need to get a job, get a better job or change your career. And it’s about having some fun along the way.
