The project runs the Criminology module at Pentonville, allowing prisoners and prison staff to achieve a nationally recognised qualification while breaking down stigma and social barriers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: rgb(242, 241, 236);\">The 11-week course runs twice annually, and ten inside students have celebrated their graduation on this occasion. All received 20 credits and a Level 3 or undergraduate foundation degree level certificate. To celebrate these outstanding achievements, the loved ones of the inside learners were also able to take part in the graduation ceremony at HMP Pentonville.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westminster.ac.uk\/news\/convict-criminology-at-westminster-initiative-celebrates-criminology-graduates-of-hmp-pentonville-prison\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 145, 77);\">Read more here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3223,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3222","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3222","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3222"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3222\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3225,"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3222\/revisions\/3225"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/3223"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/speirenua.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
