Who we are
Inspired by our partnership with ‘The National Centre For Diversity’, our FREDIE+ values are what we stand for as both a college and individuals.
To bring these values to life, we clearly outline the practical actions that make the college a high-performing, inclusive space for everybody.
Putting these behaviours into practice is how we’ve built a space where everyone is empowered to be great at what they do. Finding inspiring people who share our ethos is how we keep it that way.
Apply now if you want to build success alongside positive people who embrace this mindset.

Our action on equality
Diversity and Inclusion are more than just words at The Sheffield College
They’re part of our core decision-making and embedded into everything we do.
Our mission of ‘transforming lives through learning’ starts with building a team as diverse as the community we serve. This requires more than sentiments and words– it requires action.
The clear action we’re taking is evident from our recent achievements:

The Sheffield College will not:
- Recognise submissions of unsolicited or speculative CV applications from recruitment agencies.
