The 90-second version of the film has already been used as part of the College’s Taster Day experience, helping school pupils see and feel what life at College could be like as they begin making decisions about their next steps. A 30-second edit will also be used in cinema advertising and on Sky TV as part of the College’s wider campaign to reach young people and families across Cornwall.

The film has been created to support students at an important stage in their journey, whether they are exploring A Levels, T Levels, vocational courses, Apprenticeships, sport academies, Higher Education or specialist provision linked to future careers.
