Essentials for College
This section will provide details of essential information about your college experience including the things you will complete and learn alongside your main subjects
College and your education is more than just learning one subject. There are lots of other skills you will be developing to help your future career and personal development.
English and Maths
All students will be developing their English and Maths skills when they study with us. These are really important skills for all subjects and for our future careers and personal development. For some students who do not already have a grade 4 at GCSE, this will mean completing lessons to get a qualification which might be GCSE or Functional Skills. If you already have a grade 4 at GCSE then you will still develop your skills in your main course lessons.
Work Experience
We are the career college and we will be preparing you for your future careers. Part of this will be experiencing the workplace and the jobs you are interested in. There are a few ways in which you might experience this such as work experience, work placements, industry placements and opportunities to talk to relevant employers. You will also develop your employability skills and have some career education which will help you with finding and getting a job and being successful in your future workplace.
