All employees on permanent contracts have
access to our exclusive platform, Leicester College
Benefits and Rewards.
This gives us access to savings with over 800
retailers from big names to lesser-known brands.
The discounts are awarded on top of any sale that
might already be offered by the retailer.
For example, when Currys have their sale of up
to 30% for everyone, Leicester College staff, when
they purchase a Currys voucher through the
scheme, can save approx. 7% more on top of the
sale price.
Currys is just one of many tech providers we can
get discounts from.
