I was delighted to meet Barry Lilies, Principal of Coleg Sir Gar and members of his staff, who came to London recently for the presentation of the prestigious Beacon award that they have won for their very successful staff development programme “Pathways to excellence”.
Following the presentation of the award by the Association of Colleges, they enjoyed a tour of parliament.
I would like to congratulate all those involved in winning this award. Staff development is extremely important because inspirational, well-motivated and well-informed staff are key to giving students the best possible educational experience.
