of Wilberforce

A word from our Principal, Colin
Wilberforce College has been a prominent establishment in the Hull community since 1988. We have grown year on year and currently serve around 1,350 students from East Hull, West Hull and the East Riding villages.
We offer all the specialisms of a sixth form college, delivering exclusively to 16-19 years olds, but have a broad curriculum that includes A Level, T Level, BTEC, UAL and City & Guilds qualifications. Our Level 3 Advanced qualifications are particularly successful and we continuously see our students progress to some of the best universities and careers.
The College’s support services are outstanding and complement students’ learning to ensure that they have the best chance of success and their experience with us extends beyond the classroom.
We continue to make significant investment in the College’s facilities, staff and students, ensuring that we remain the first choice for students, both now and in future years.

TREES OF HOPE 🌳🎗️
Our Student Services Team are there to support all students throughout their College life and also have many links with external services, such as the @humberwellbeinghub This September we are supporting the first-ever #FestivalofHope – a bold, creative and compassionate response to self-harm and suicide, taking place across the Humber region in line with World Suicide Prevention Day. To mark this important day of awareness, yesterday (10/9) four Trees of Hope were placed in the Atrium, inviting students and staff to add their own hearts sharing positive messages, thoughts, or quotes.🤍
Helen, Student Support Officer and Mental Health Lead, shared that "It’s important that we allow for the College to be an open space where we can raise awareness and make sure our students feel comfortable and empowered to talk about such a sensitive subject." 💭
At Wilberforce, support is outstanding, find out more on our website via the link in our bio 🔗

Sammi Iverson
PAST BIOLOGY, CHEMISTRY, PHYSICS & GEOGRAPHY STUDENT
Sammi, formerly of Withernsea High School, has gone onto achieve great success pursuing her ambition of a career within the scientific industry. After studying Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Geography with Wilberforce, Sammi continued her educational journey at the University of Hull studying for a degree in Biomedical Science – much to the joy of her former Biology teacher Martin who she is still fondly remembered by! Sammi’s positive outlook and cheery demeanour as a Wilberforce student was equal to her hard work and commitment to her studies, so it is no surprise she committed herself to completing her doctorate in Medical Microbiology at Hull York Medical School. Using this impressive track record of excellence in research, she secured an R&D post at Reckitt, quickly transferring to her current role as a medical writer for Reckitt’s Global Affairs Division, seeing her travel the world using her passion for science communication and expertise to advise and educate consumers and fellow researchers in this global medical giant. Sammi has shone brightly since her days at Wilberforce and we are so proud of her achievements which we were delighted to celebrate during our recent Achievement Awards Evening.
