Falmouth Marine School is holding an advice session on January 29 between 6pm and 8pm, to help prospective students with their progression in education.

Staff will be on hand to offer advice and guidance on the range of courses and qualifications in boatbuilding, counselling, health and social care, leisure and watersports, marine engineering and marine science. Courses are also available in basic reading and writing skills.

Head of Falmouth Marine School Tom Shaw, said: "This is a great opportunity for the local community to come and see the range of courses that we offer, meet the staff and get a general feel for the Marine School. We feel that we have a lot to offer our students and our schedule of advice sessions is a perfect way to assist them in the decisions they have to make."
