EVENT: GBS UK Graduation

London’s Prestigious Wembley Stadium Hosts GBS UK Graduation for 2025

Almost 2,000 Global Banking School UK students graduated from a range of courses, all aimed at making them valuable assets for employers from across a range of sectors. It comes a week after 1,500 GBS UK students from across Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds, graduated at Birmingham’s Symphony Hall.

Students have graduated from Business, Healthcare, Construction, and Digital Technologies, ranging from HNDs to Bachelor Degrees, to address the demand in the UK for a skilled workforce.

GBS UK CEO, James Kennedy, said GBS UK is having more of an impact on its communities with each year that passes. “We work to widen participation, address skills shortages and ultimately enable social mobility – today, we see this first-hand,” said Mr Kennedy.

“These students we see here today will go on to have a significant impact on their local communities, which in the long-term will also have an impact at a national level. “Business, healthcare, construction and digital technologies are all crucial sectors for the UK economy, growing at a rapid rate and offering increasing employment opportunities.
“We stand ready to address this demand, with mature-age graduates with unique lived experience, that makes them a well-rounded choice for employers.

The three keynote speakers at the event were Mr James Murray, MP, Minister and Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, ⁠Sir Alastair Nathan Cook CBE who is an English former cricketer and former captain of the England Test and ODI teams and ⁠Mr Virendra Sharma, Former Senior Labour MP.

“It was wonderful to have James Murray MP here today, Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, and a good friend of GBS UK, to address our students and inspire them in their next steps.” The Office for Students (OfS) has also today released its NSS data for 2025, showing a considerable increase in satisfaction across almost all categories.

Most notably, 90% of students were satisfied in the ‘Teaching on my Course’ category. This is a very high level of satisfaction and 3% above the average for the Higher Education sector as a whole. GBS also ranked significantly above the sector average across all categories in the survey with Organisation and Management 8% higher and Academic Support 5% higher than the average reported by the OfS.
