Signing the contract

The link between the University of Bedfordshire and the Polhill Group of Colleges has been strengthened.

A new collaboration agreement takes effect this summer between the University and the five-strong Polhill Group of Colleges – Tresham Institute in Kettering, Leicester College, Grantham College, Castle College in Nottingham and Oxford and Cherwell Valley College in Oxford and Banbury.

David Barrett, the University of Bedfordshire’s Dean of Partnerships, said: “We’re continuing to work and develop this strategic alliance and extend our higher education opportunities with local delivery.”

Two of the five colleges sent representatives to Bedford for the signing.
