Borders College

It’s vital that we support Borders College to provide opportunities for young people and fill local skills gaps for businesses.

But this year, Borders College has received a real terms cut to their budget from the SNP Government.

This damaging cut is despite the fact that the college has more applications than it did at this stage last year.

So I have called on the SNP Government to provide funding for an extra 200 places at the Borders College to allow Borders College to meet student demand and maintain the excellent level of experience they provide just now.

It was a joy to spend an evening joining in the activities of the Selkirk Scout Group and see all the badges they have earned.

I was very impressed with the skills the young people have learned and all the effort they’ve put in.
