Mark Locking, Lincoln College Group Principal and CEO, said: “What a wonderful celebration of the amazing achievements of our higher education students.

“This is always one of my favourite events of the year as our teachers who have worked so hard get to see the look of pride on our graduates’ faces and those of their families.

“And how fitting for it to take place during the week that we celebrate World Teachers Day. We are so immensely proud of the work of our higher and further education teachers through some tough times in recent years.”

Matthew Harrison, who studied Business and Management and graduated with a First-Class honours degree, said said: “I’m really happy I did the course. The smaller class sizes and support from the tutors and other students was something that you won’t get anywhere else. I’d highly recommending the degree for anyone interested.”

Georgia Davey, who graduated from Mechanical Engineering, added: “I chose to study at Lincoln College because I really liked the setting and loved the campus. Hopefully after graduation my aspirations are to join the Royal Air Force.”
