Head of sport at Nelson & Colne College, Ste Buckley said: "Having the Burnley FC players here was amazing for our students. It showed the importance of a well-rounded education as well as excellence in sport, matters.
"Our courses are well-thought-out roadmaps - they don't just lead to uni but also to jobs. This visit really drove home how what we teach is useful in the real world.”
