South Staffordshire College is thrilled to announce that its marketing team has won an award at the 2025 FE First Awards within the Communications Campaign category.

The FE First Awards organised by the College Marketing Network is the only award ceremony to specifically celebrate the achievements of marketing teams and individuals from colleges and sixth forms within the UK. Shortlisted colleges were awarded either a Highly Commended, Silver award, or Gold award within a variety of award categories.

The marketing team at South Staffordshire College were recognised with a Silver award in the Communications Campaign category. The judges remarked “the marketing team had been able to successfully capture the attention of its target audience to significantly increase school leaver enrolments and deliver a remarkable return on investment”.
