Your studies are important, but we also want you to enjoy college life and take on new challenges. So, alongside your lessons, we have an outstanding range of clubs and enrichment activities for you to try.
These will enhance your college experience and equip you with necessary skills for your future.

Lunchtime Activities
Our social areas enable you to meet up with friends during free periods and breaks to ensure you enjoy your time with us outside the classroom too. Whether you want to study in a formal setting, or work on your iPad whilst having a coffee, there will be a perfect space available.
Throughout the year, our pastoral team will host a variety of fundraising events for you to be involved in. Recent fundraisers included Children in Need and a sport challenge for Sport Relief.
In addition, we have a brand-new technology enabled Digital Learning Zone (DLZ) in which you can study in a vibrant, modern and open-plan space. Becoming a digitally savvy student will enable you to study 24/7, without being confined by traditional learning environments, e.g. from home, on the bus or in your local café. Our DLZ will also provide you with access to books, journals, newspapers and quiet zones.
EQUALITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSIVITY
FutureSkills at MediaCityUK is a place at which all students can achieve their full potential. We welcome all applications and aim to provide access to all courses regardless of students’ gender, ethnicity or disability. We value diversity and see education as an opportunity to share different experiences. We have a firm commitment to raising the achievements of all our students and help them in any way we can. This was confirmed by Ofsted who states, “Equality and diversity are outstanding and exceptionally well intergraded into all aspects of the College’s work”.
LGBTQ+
We have an LGBTQ+ Group which provides an avenue for students whether LGBTQ+ or not, to meet up on a regular basis. This group links with the Local Authority and University of Salford to raise awareness across the College.
