Start of the academic year
The start of the new academic year marks a new chapter for our students. It is a busy time, with new students settling in to our campus, discovering their new training schedules and the start of extra-curricular activities.
Holidays and bank holidays
These holidays are essential for both students and teachers. They provide an opportunity to relax, spend time with loved ones and recharge their batteries before returning to studies.
End of year and graduation dates
The end of the academic year and graduation dates are not only an end, an oral defence, a final exam, but also a new beginning for many students as they embark on their professional careers.
