Family and friends of students, along with staff and guests of the College celebrated all the students’ hard work and commitment – with around 1,000 people attending. After each ceremony, graduates and guests carried on the celebrations at a drinks reception in the Atrium of the College’s Kirkcaldy Campus.

Tomorrow (Monday, January 29), the college is piloting its first-ever relaxed graduation experience for students who may find attending the traditional ceremony overwhelming.

To make graduation accessible for everyone, the College has designed the relaxed alternative to support their students with learning difficulties, autism, social anxiety, or sensory processing difficulties.

Dorothee Leslie, Vice-Principal at Fife College, said: “Graduation is always a special occasion for Fife College. Each ceremony allows us time to reflect and celebrate the hard work and dedication shown by our students during their time at College.  

“We take immense pride in knowing that, due to the investment each of them has made in their studies, our 2022/23 graduates will go on to achieve great things in their further studies and chosen careers. We wish them all the very best for the future.”
