Inspirational open days showcase college’s life-changing potential
InspireU celebrated its new name, vision and mission with a series of open days across the county.
Formerly known as the Young People’s Learning Provision, InspireU is dedicated to empowering young people throughout Lincolnshire, with sites in Boston, Grantham, Lincoln, Louth, Ruskington, Skegness and Spalding.
Cllr Mrs Patricia Bradwell OBE, executive member for children’s services, said: “The open days were a wonderful way to mark this new beginning for InspireU, and I really enjoyed the opportunity to meet the staff and some of the young people they are working with.
“InspireU helps each learner towards their fullest potential, whether it's advancing to further or higher education, securing an apprenticeship or diving into rewarding employment. The college has so much to offer, and it could be the first step towards a brighter future.”
InspireU’s vision is for every learner to realise and achieve their potential, and it ignites passion through delivering study programmes and supported internships to young people aged 16-24. The offer includes a comprehensive curriculum, intertwining core subjects like maths and English GCSEs, and preparation for adulthood through rewarding community projects and engaging extracurricular activities.
In addition, there is dedicated support for special educational needs and disabilities, alongside a compassionate pastoral team and experienced wellbeing coaches, ensuring that every individual's unique needs are met with understanding and care.
