We hope to be known as a high-performing institution that serves the needs of the city we serve by the academic year 2024–2025. to promote the development of technical, vocational, and professional behaviours in order to increase chances for higher education, employment, and career promotion. By enrolling in one of our programmes, you can improve your life, develop in your job, and broaden your skill set. I'm thrilled to welcome you to City of Bristol College, Bristol's top institution of higher learning. In all we do, we're dedicated to promoting, upholding, and supporting equal opportunity. All of our children should reach their full potential while also learning to appreciate one another and themselves. We wish to acknowledge and appreciate the diversity of our faculty, staff, and students. We are a secular college, and all of our resources are devoted to academic pursuits. The College does not assist any one religion and does not authorise it to support itself at the expense of other religions. Although we do not provide exclusive areas for religious organisations, we do allow religious worship wherever it is possible. We must all contribute in order to build an environmentally responsible institution. Because we employ more than 800 people and have more than 11,000 students, it is impossible to ignore the impact that our institution has on the environment. We have pledged $1,000,000 to making sustainability a primary priority because of this. We are pleased with our environmental records, but we are also conscious that there is always potential for improvement. We're here to make sure you receive the assistance you require whenever you do.
