The collaboration will see USW working with further education colleges across Wales to provide creative challenges that stretch high achievers, raise their aspirations, and develop leadership potential.

The first day also included a tour of the campus facilities, meetings with the FCI academic staff, and the students’ first ‘creative challenge’.Persons Sarah Carter
