Vocational Access

You will have access to career focused sessions in different vocational subject areas with subject experts to find what you enjoy and excel in. Whatever your interest, we help you build the skills you need to progress. 

On the course you’ll take part in group projects and complete assignments that build your study skills. Learning will take place in the classroom and in work-place settings. You also continue to develop your skills in English, Maths, with some students choosing to re-sit their GCSE in these subjects at the same time.
