Applications invited for £500 bursaries. 

Central Qualifications (CQ) is delighted to announce the introduction of an educational bursary scheme, aimed at students enrolling on a CQ course at an approved Training Centre within the UK.

A number of bursaries to the value of £500 will be awarded each year, and are designed to help students meet the costs associated with undertaking veterinary nurse training.

This year CQ's Diploma in Veterinary Nursing (DipVN) will be taught at a number of colleges and centres across the country, and all students set to enrol are invited to apply for the bursary scheme. The closing date for applications is 31st August 2012, and the successful applicants will receive their bursaries in November.

Central Qualifications is a nationally recognised awarding body for veterinary nursing and animal related qualifications. Dedicated to high standards of vocational learning, CQ offers the DipVN in Small Animals, with the Diploma in Equine Veterinary Nursing to be available soon.

Reading to dogs transformed life of boy with dyslexia

A Dogs Helping Kids scheme in North Devon, which aims to help children learn to read by practising aloud with dogs, has transformed the life of a boy with dyslexia. Aged nine, Finn Swanson was diagnosed as having dyslexic traits last year, and was a reluctant reader, which was impacting on his progress and confidence.

However, since he began reading to Dexter, a shih tzu/poodle cross, and Kym, a cavalier King Charles/poodle cross, Finn's teachers have seen a transformation in him. Special educational needs co-ordinator, Naomi Jeffries, says: "He's a completely different child."
