Jade shines at college awards

Jade Tideswell from Bollington, Macclesfield was recognised at Buxton & Leek College’s Annual Student Awards Ceremony this month, for her outstanding achievement as Media Student of the Year. 

Principal of the College Len Tildsley, who presented the ceremony at Buxton’s iconic Devonshire Dome, praised Jade for her enthusiasm and determination:

“Jade has worked extremely hard to ensure she achieves the highest possible grades at all times.” Said Len.

“She will achieve the highest grade we can award, a triple-distinction star. The work she has produced on the course would easily be mistaken for that of a professional producer/director with excellent organisation and creativity.”

Malcolm Todd, Pro Vice-Chancellor at University of Derby, of which Buxton & Leek College is a part, said:

“Buxton & Leek College is an integral part of the University of Derby and it is 20 years since High Peak College in Buxton became part of the University of Derby and 6 years at the end of the month since Leek College joined us to form Buxton & Leek College, so an important year in many ways.”

This year’s sponsors included Mojo Fuel which sponsored the Media Award that Jade took home, among many other high-value prizes.
