Year 2 Policing and Criminology students inspire next generation with future career goals.

Well done to our Year 2 Policing and Criminology students; Oliver, Megan, Jack and Amy who visited pupils at "The Maple school" Blackpool, to share what they do on their course at B&FC.

This was a great opportunity for the young Maple school students to learn more about what they could do, if they came to study Uniformed Protective Services or Policing and Criminology at B&FC.

Here is some awesome feedback from the staff and pupils from The Maple school 🏫;

What an amazing afternoon for careers at The Maple School!

Many of our students are interested in working in the public services therefore, lead teacher Glenn and four of his enthusiastic students from Blackpool and The Fylde College visited us to run an exciting careers event for KS2, KS3 and KS4. The college students led a range of hands‑on activities giving students a real taste of the skills used in the field.

Students had the opportunity to explore forensic science through fingerprint card tasks, questioning and tried on specialist equipment used in crowd‑control situations... We even took part in a radio‑call challenge using the phonetic alphabet! It was such an engaging, energetic career event that inspired learners across the school.

Final Expedition walk around Beacon Fell 🥾🗺️

What an incredible achievement from our Level 3 Uniformed Protective Service students (Yellow & Green group) today, as they completed the final unit Expedition - conquering 14.1 miles around Beacon Fell Country Park.

Their determination, teamwork and resilience shone through every step. A brilliant way to finish the journey and a moment they should be truly proud of.

A massive "Thank you" to our very own UPS Lecturer Matthew for organising this week's and last week's Expedition and Duke of Edinburgh activities. Thank you too, to all other B&FC staff members who jumped at the chance to help our students achieve their Expedition success - we could not have done it without you. 🏕️🥾🗺️⛺📸.

For some of our students, this was their first opportunity to fully engage the beauty of the great outdoors and explore the great outdoors, which is only a stone throw away from their surroundings in Blackpool.

Plans are already in discussion to make next year's Expedition plans, even bigger and better! 🏕️🥾🗺️⛺

Fleetwood to Blackpool Charity walk completed 🥾♥️

A proud moment today, as our Level 1 UPS students completed their charity walk from Fleetwood Town FC to Blackpool FC to raise valuable funds for Helping Hearts - Fylde, Wyre and Blackpool.

The walk gave them all the chance to push themselves under the sunny weather, as well enabling them to work together, demonstrate their map reading skills, support their community and discover what they can achieve when they put their minds and feet into action. It was great to see them all get selfies too of their beautiful surroundings from Fleetwood Town FC to Blackpool FC.

A fantastic day all round, topped off with a visit to local dessert shop "Something Sweet" who kindly donated £10.00 towards our students Just Giving fundraiser page.

Well done to all involved — an amazing effort for a brilliant cause.
