She said: "I am so delighted to see each one of you here today.

Some of you will soon be entering the world of business and employment and as an employer we look for relevant skills and experience, but also something that shows you've got a passion and that you've got the right attitude and be a team player. The Global Talent Programme has given you the tools to take this forward and the unique programme at Bournemouth puts you ahead of others. Everyone has a different cultural context and you will gain a lot by listening and learning from them".
