Schools Outreach

Realising potential and supporting Success

Our mission is simple: to help every learner realise their potential and achieve success. Through our Schools Outreach programme, we work in partnership with schools, communities, and businesses to provide high-quality academic, technical, and professional learning experiences.

  • The College offers many different subjects and levels to study, with some courses being more practical than others. It is likely we have a course that suits you.
  • A dress code does not exist in college, so feel free to wear what you want and dress comfortably. 
  • Timetables and lessons are likely going to be different to your school experience, for example, you may have breaks between lessons at college, and class sizes may be bigger. At college, you are treated more as an adult; therefore, you need to ensure that you arrive at college on time and attend as expected. 
  • You will likely meet lots of new people from all walks of life which will be a good opportunity to make new friends. 

We deliver tailored activities that support careers education and meet Gatsby Benchmarks, all underpinned by our values of Ambition, Care, Commitment, Equity, Integrity, and Partnership.

  • Core workshops
    Our core workshops offer practical and engaging sessions on study skills, career pathways and employability
  • Assemblies and presentations
    We offer inspiring talks about college life, vocational routes, apprenticeships and progressional opportunities.
  • Taster and campus visits
    We offer the opportunity to experience our industry-standard facilities and give you an idea of college life with us. 
  • Teacher and advisor support
    School staff can access up-to-date resources and opportunities to find out more about the qualifications available in order to guide learners effectively.  

Our partnership will enable your learners to realise their potential and support their success in the following ways: 

  • We help students aim high and explore all possibilities
  • Sessions are designed with learners’ needs at the heart. 
  • We deliver consistently high-quality experiences
  • We provide inclusive opportunities for all learners
  • We offer honest, transparent guidance on progression routes. 

Our open events are designed for you to find out more about college life, and visit our campuses to find out more about the courses you may be interested in, the support available, and speak with staff and students.
