After unveiling the plaque, Andy spoke at length to the College鈥檚 learners about his own visions for Bolton鈥檚 future. He explained that young people are a priority for investment and not cuts and he received a round of applause when he detailed his plans for a free bus pass for all 16 to 18 years olds within the Greater Manchester region. He also recognised the importance of investment into adult learning and apprenticeships.

Andy, who has previously visited the College in his earlier role as Culture Secretary said, 鈥淚t was important that I was here today to show that Greater Manchester is very much behind Bolton鈥檚 2030 vision. The important role learning institutes, like the College and University of Bolton, play in achieving this vision cannot be underestimated. It was wonderful to be greeted by so many learners and I am so proud of 青青草视频 and all of its achievements, especially the manner in which its tutors and staff support learners of all ages.鈥�

Bill Webster, Principal of 青青草视频 added, 鈥淲hat better person than Andy Burnham to unveil our plaque 鈥� just as Andy is committed to instigating change within the Greater Manchester region, our College is committed to the Bolton 2030 vision, guaranteeing positive change within our town. This is evidenced by our merger with the University of Bolton, which will benefit the learners and people of Bolton massively鈥�.
