Outstanding achievement awards went out to 74 students and alumni at the College on Thursday 15 December.
Many of the recipients and their families were joined by Portsmouth North MP Penny Mordaunt and City Councillor Suzy Horton for the ceremony at the College’s Sixth Form Campus.
“At City of Portsmouth College, we’re all about inspiring our students to achieve their very best, setting them in great stead for their future careers and preparing them for the world of work ahead,” said College Principal and Chief Executive Officer Katy Quinn.
“Our vision is to be the college of choice for the city of Portsmouth and our region, shaping our city’s future by unlocking the potential of its learners – and that’s exactly what we’re doing!
“We’re enormously proud of all the students here tonight, as well as the ones who couldn’t make it, and we’re delighted that so many of you are able to share in their success.”
Said Penny: “It’s fantastic to meet so many smart and dedicated ex-students, hear their stories and celebrate their incredible achievements.
“We could well be looking at the next generation of leaders and influencers in Portsmouth and beyond.
“It’s an exciting prospect which fills me with positivity for the future.”
