An important and interesting awards ceremony was held at Ely Community College on Wednesday to present awards for outstanding performance by various groups of the adult learning and skills organisation in Ely.
There were eight groups, ranging from Career Progression, Supporting Into Work, Getting Into Work, Excellent Provider, and Excellent Partner, the latter sponsored by Tesco. Ely Rotary Club sponsored Inspiring Volunteer and Excellent Volunteer awards. Inspiring Supporter and Inspirational Learner were sponsored by the Education and Training Foundation and the Good Things Foundation respectively.
The enthusiasm was evident as the recipients went up to collect their awards, reminding the considerable audience that there are so many people involved in further education that enriches the lives of all who really try and get on in this world.
