Cuts at City College Norwich - no courses threatened

I am  pleased to announce that we will not be cutting any courses on financial grounds, and will be protecting our services for students, after we have been forced to unveil proposals for making savings in our budget totalling £2.8m over the next 3 years.  Anyone thinking of applying for courses starting in September 2010 can rest assured that advertised courses will still be running – however, any new prospective students should get their applications in quickly as course places are filling up fast!    

 The fact that we have been able to safeguard our courses, by making changes to the management structure of the college and finding savings elsewhere, is really good news for all of our current students as well as those who are in the process of applying to come and study with us.  A key principle of the changes we are proposing is that our services for students should not suffer as a result of reductions in our funding for next year.  I am really pleased that we have been able to manage this so that our students will not lose out because of these government funding cuts.
 
These are tough times for the public sector and we all have to share "in the pain" but we are very determined to continue along our path to become one of the top ten colleges in the country.
