Students from Warrington Collegiate get into gear
People learning about mechanics at Warrington Collegiate are being handed the chance to jump-start this process, thanks to cutting edge car technology donated by Vauxhall.
The manufacturer has provided the establishment’s workshop for motor vehicle training with ten gearboxes, offering students taking this course the opportunity to enhance their skills and knowledge.
Among other things, the donation will assist these students in learning about the successful diagnosis and repair of faults in the gearboxes, as well as how to put them back together in working order.
Workshop lecturer Chris Johnson stated that the gearboxes would enable Warrington Collegiate to provide training for its vehicle technician students using state of the art car technology, and added that this was not the first time Vauxhall had provided them with car parts – support that they greatly appreciated.
One of the students on the course, Jayson Biddle, told the Warrington Guardian:
Warrington Collegiate provides motor vehicle repair and maintenance courses for apprentices and students from over 30 schools, and there are brochure printers in Warrington that can supply the prospectuses needed to attract these students.
Its facilities include a strip-down section for engines and tyre bay.

“This is really great. There’s no substitute for the real thing. The garage here at the college is really well equipped and I’m looking forward to working on the new gear boxes.”
