Our goal is to ensure these commitments are also embedded in our day-to-day working practices with our learners, colleagues, and partners. 

We know the most successful teams are the most diverse teams. Equality, diversity, and inclusion provide the very foundation to our culture at Coleg Gwent. We want every individual to feel confident, proud, and able to bring their whole selves to work. We welcome applications from those who think differently and we are flexible to cater to neurodiverse talent.
