Bury College has a dedicated External Funding team, who aim to develop
ideas and projects that mainstream funding cannot support. Externally funded projects allows the college to:
- Develop and trial new ideas and courses.
- Target support at dedicated groups, such as those working within
priority sectors in the region, those living in regeneration areas,
unemployed residents and those with special educational needs.
- Offer additional support such as travel, childcare and course
costs that remove barriers and allow learners to re-engage with
education.
- Develop partnerships with key agencies, such as Connexions, Job
Centre Plus, the North West Development Agency and other College’s
to ensure provision meets the needs of residents and the economy.
