Cadbury Coronation Celebrations Fit for a King
We were delighted to host Group Captain Deputy Lieutenant Ian Sargeant OBE today for our Big Coronation Party and tree planting ceremony.
Many of our staff and students have been making big preparations for this event to commemorate the historic Coronation of King Charles III.
Creating colourful bunting and learning about the significance and history of the Monarchy, students also enjoyed Coronation-inspired cakes and games and sang celebratory songs live on stage.
Royal representative Group Captain Sargeant, who is also a Queen’s Honorary Surgeon, joined in with the celebrations and met members of staff and students, before helping Head of Curriculum Ian Vogel to plant a commemorative tree in the campus grounds.
The Lord-Lieutenant, Sir John Crabtree OBE, who attended the Coronation on Saturday, is appointed by the King to represent him in the region and attend events and activities on his behalf.
He said: “The Coronation is really bringing people together to celebrate and get involved in some amazing projects. You can feel the excitement mounting across the region and there is a wonderful community spirit with many people volunteering for the first time to support their community.”
The West Midlands is the second largest Lieutenancy in England and Wales supporting nearly 3 million people across seven local authorities of Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall and Wolverhampton.
The Lieutenancy is active across the community supporting projects and initiatives that benefit the community and it helps recognise people through the Honours awards. It also coordinates Royal Visits and acts as a connection between the civic, military, religious, armed forces and emergency services.
The Lieutenancy is involved in a number of events that will be held across the region for the Coronation.

You’ll see that we’ve invested millions in our new £6.6 million STEM centre, which is dedicated to giving you the best experience and state-of-the-art facilities for T Level study.
So if you’d like to study at a high level – but with more focus on practical and professional experience, which not only looks great on your CV but will give you the UCAS points to get into a top university – T Levels are your best choice.
Equivalent to 3 A Levels, the 2-year T Level qualifications have been developed in collaboration with employers and businesses. This means they meet the needs of industry and will develop you with the skills, knowledge and workplace experience you need to really succeed.
T Levels offer you the best of both worlds: a mixture of classroom learning and ‘on-the-job’ experience during an industry placement of at least 315 hours (approximately 45 days).
You’ll also get all the benefits of being a Cadbury student including a free bus pass for unlimited daytime, evening and weekend travel, plus mentoring, coaching and any extra support you might need.
Find out about the T Levels we can offer you:
Digital Design and Development
Education and Childcare
Health
Legal Services
Management and Administration
Media, Broadcast and Production
What do T Level technical qualifications include?
1. Core theory, concepts and skills for an industry area
2. Specialist skills and knowledge for an occupation or career
3. An industry placement with an employer
4. Maths and English if you haven’t already achieved the minimum standard
