Bradford College's use of digital technology has won it a 'College of the Year' award.
The college's Learning, Development, and Innovation team was honoured with the accolade at the Edufuturists Awards 2025 - whose ceremony was held in Manchester - for its use of digital technology to enhance student learning.
The team's efforts include hosting dedicated staff development days for digital upskilling.
Bradford College also has an immersive classroom and a ClassView system for "connecting learners across the country."
According to a spokesperson for the college, "the team has designed bespoke VR content to support student-led learning, raising engagement and access for SEND and ESOL learners."
Thirty-thousand public nomination votes were cast this year for the Edufuturists Awards, with these, as well as a judging panel, determining the winners in the various categories.
Monika Worthington, learning innovation lead and Microsoft certified educator at Bradford College, said: "We are proud to lead the way in pioneering educational practices and technologies that prepare students for the challenges of tomorrow.
"Our approach centres around accessibility, inclusion, and personalisation.
"Technology has enabled us to remove learning barriers, adapt teaching to suit individual needs, and offer students engaging, immersive experiences."
