快播成人网’s North Kensington Centre for Skills is excited to debut its vibrant Music programme this year, joining a proud 快播成人网 musical tradition that dates back to Gustav Holst’s tenure as Director of Music and before.听

Embracing the beat of the city, new classes resonate with innovation and opportunity, offering a platform for students to explore, create, and thrive in the dynamic world of music. 

These courses include Pearson BTEC Level 2 Diploma in Music Industry Skills and BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Music Performance or Production where students can dive into the world of music.  

Luke Lount 鈥 Programme Area Manager for Music in North Kensington 鈥 gave us insights into the programme, the facilities and future opportunities in W10.   

Q: What sets apart the music education experience at the North Kensington Centre for Skills from other institutions?  

Luke: We offer our students specialist tuition in brand new, custom-built facilities with a tailored approach to learning. Due to our smaller class sizes, we can offer a more customised experience to our learners, offering them a range of internal and external opportunities to help them pursue their goals.   

Q: What types of facilities and resources are available?  

Luke: Students have access to first class facilities at NK. Our custom-built recording studio is industry-standard and features three independent live rooms that can be connected to allow for the live capture of a diverse range of performances. The Mac production and composition studio is designed to be a working space for artists and producers, offering new equipment and a station per student. Finally, the rehearsal rooms are a specially designed workspace suitable for performance and live sound. Students at NK also have access to 快播成人网 Radio’s studios as well as the brand new Main Hall for performances. 

Q: Could you elaborate on any special initiatives that are integrated into the curriculum?  

Luke: NK offers a variety of special programmes, workshops, and masterclasses to enrich students’ learning experiences. These include coveted work placements at renowned studios like and , backstage access at and the , mentorship through Creative Networks, and exposure to industry-active lecturers.  

Q: How does collaboration play a role in the music programme at NK?  

Luke: Collaboration is central to NK’s music programme, fostering interdisciplinary engagement and practical learning. Production students work closely with performers, recording and mixing compositions, while performers create music for producers. Furthermore, students are encouraged to collaborate across different subject areas, exploring the multifaceted nature of music.  

Q: What career pathways can graduates of the music programme expect?  

Luke: While it’s early to predict specific career pathways, graduates of NK’s music programme are equipped with practical skills and industry insights, priming them for diverse careers in performance, production, composition, and beyond. Their education and experiential learning pave the way for a harmonious future in the realm of music.  

Student experiences within the programme 

Malachi and Ramon are two students who are currently enrolled in the music programme at NK. They both spoke about their experience in the course, what caught their eye and advice for future students.   

What drew you to the course?   

Malachi: 鈥淚 have had a passion for music for a long time. It is around my family who have been involved in music for a long time. My dad, brother and uncle are all musicians. I guess it is the history of my family making music that made me want to start making music.鈥  

Ramon: 鈥淚 have always wanted to do something within music. When I was younger I participated in a lot of different musical activities, although I never took it further. London is a city where there are lots of creative activities and I just wanted to go for it.鈥  

What is your favourite part of the course?   

Malachi: 鈥淚 am a producer and love beat making. I love creating my own beat with drums, bass and experimenting with different genres.鈥 

Ramon: 鈥淭he studio and the sound engineering. All of the desk, how the tech side of things works. It is great to have these professional faculties to use throughout the programme.鈥 

Any advice for further students?   

Malachi: 鈥淒on鈥檛 be afraid to try all different aspects of music. Try not to narrow yourself down to one thing; there is so much out there and you never know what you might end up loving. You don鈥檛 have to be the biggest artist, there are so many different types of roles.鈥  

Ramon: 鈥淒o your research on a programme. You don鈥檛 need to know exactly what you want to do but it is always good to shop around for a programme that suits you.鈥  

Join us!  

Start exploring and creating with 快播成人网’s North Kensington-based Music provision鈥ind your musical talent in the lively beat of North Kensington, where every sound is full of promise. Dream big, make music, and inspire others at NK where music and skill come together to shape your future.

On the evening of 26 March, 130 attendees came together to celebrate a century of 快播成人网’s tenure at 61 Westminster Bridge Road.

Waterloo100 was more than just an event; it was a journey through time, exploring the rich history, experiencing the vibrant present and envisioning the exciting future of the Waterloo Centre for Adult Education.

Performances and exciting conversations

The night commenced with speeches from Dr. Andrew Gower, Principal of 快播成人网, and Bushra Iqbal, Centre Principal at Waterloo, who spoke about the history of the Waterloo Centre as well as plans for its future.

快播成人网鈥檚 Big Band – in both its ‘beginners’ and full guises – gave a great performance and played beautifully.

The Big Band was accompanied by Mark Ferrigan, who sang a few songs to conclude the performance, contributing to a celebratory atmosphere that showcased 快播成人网鈥檚 music students and their dedication to learning.

Touring the past 100 years

Members of staff hosted guided tours that took guests on an immersive exploration of the Waterloo Centre, delving into its fascinating history and showcasing its iconic spaces.

Throughout the college there were live classes, captivating exhibitions, insightful re-enactments and the dynamic 快播成人网 Radio, every corner resonating with the spirit of 快播成人网’s enduring legacy.

As tours concluded, guests gathered in the Emma Cons Hall to indulge in delectable food and beverages whilst networking with other members of the 快播成人网 community.

Congratulations to our competition winner

To celebrate 100 years at Waterloo, the college hosted a competition for a lucky attendee to win a FREE short course at the Waterloo Centre.

Bushra Iqbal, Centre Principal at Waterloo, will contact the winner this week: here’s a sneak peek.

Bushra expressed her excitement, calling Waterloo100 “a night to remember” and noting her appreciation of everyone who was part of this historic celebration.

快播成人网 would like to thank all of those who attended including Friends of 快播成人网, stakeholders, students and colleagues who joined us for this special occasion.

Higher Technical Qualifications are new qualifications introduced by the government to boost skills and opportunities for adults.  

Informed with employers’ input, HTQs offer the latest industry-relevant training which employers have said they need. They offer students the right training, knowledge, and skills to succeed in the workplace. 

We met up with Melanie Butcher, Higher Technical Qualifications Lead at 快播成人网, to learn more about HTQs and how they can influence adult education and career ambitions. 

Q: What are Higher Technical Qualifications? 

Mel: Higher Technical Qualifications (HTQs) are new Level 4 and Level 5 qualifications developed by awarding bodies in collaboration with employers to equip students with the necessary training, knowledge, and skills they need to succeed in the workplace.  

As part of the government’s higher technical education reforms, HTQs serve as a viable alternative to apprenticeships or degrees, filling the gap between A levels or T Levels and degrees.  

From September 2024, 快播成人网 will introduce a range of Higher Technical Qualifications (HTQs) and additional fully 鈥 funded Level 4 and Level 5 courses designed to offer a practical skill 鈥 based approach to careers in business, finance and healthcare, ensuring students are equipped with the sought-after skills that employers are looking for. 

Q. Could you tell us more about what Level 4 and Level 5 qualifications are… 

Mel: Of course, higher education can be confusing with its different levels and titles. Education is traditionally measured in levels beginning at entry and working up so for instance a student studying A levels would be at Level 3.  

Level 4 and 5 are higher education levels that would encompass studying at a higher level at college or university, for example on a degree or postgraduate level of study. HTQs are classed as Level 4 and 5 dependent on the course.  

A good place to find out more is at gov.uk  

Q: Who can benefit from HTQs? 

HTQs are tailored for individuals aged 18 and above seeking to enhance their skill set, pursue new career paths, or attain formal qualifications. 

Q: How are HTQs delivered? 

All our HTQs will be a blend of classroom-based sessions in college, live webinars and interactive e-learning, with an emphasis on developing practical and transferable skills for work-based scenarios.  

Q: What financial support is available for HTQ students? 

Mel: Students may apply for tuition fee loans, maintenance loans, and grants depending on their circumstances and the type of HTQ being pursued. 

These loans and grants can help cover tuition fees, living costs, and other educational expenses.  

You can find out more information by visiting .听

Q: What HTQ courses are offered at 快播成人网? 

Mel: At 快播成人网, we are offering the following HTQ courses: 

Q: Tell us more about the free fully 鈥 funded module? 

Mel: Yes, and this is really exciting… we are able to offer learners a free module, fully 鈥 funded by the government.  

Learners can select a free module of their choice from the Leadership and Management HTQ course. The free modules on key business topics have all been designed to equip learners with the knowledge and practical skills needed in leadership and management roles across a range of different sectors.    

They can choose one of the following modules: 

These modules provide learners the chance to explore the Leadership and Management course while earning a Certificate of Unit Credit (CoUC), paving the way for promotion, career development and progression to further HE study such as the full Leadership and Management HTQ course.  

Q. This all sounds great. So, Mel, who do people contact for more information?  

Mel: For more information on our HTQ courses, please contact me by emailing Melanie.Butcher@morleycollege.ac.uk or my colleague, Gurdeep Lakhanpal, Gurdeep.Lakhanpal@morleycollege.ac.uk
