A City BCBT Belongs To

Higher education participation among adults from Bradford's most disadvantaged wards remains well below the national average, but the BCBT exists to help change that. Our campus, courses, timetabling and student support are designed for the people of this city — including learners returning to study after years away from formal education, learners balancing study with work and family, and learners who will be the first in their family to earn an undergraduate degree
