Programmes of Study

We are really proud of the quality and variety in our courses offered at post-16 level, including creative subjects such as Fine Art and Music, as well as social sciences including Politics and Sociology. Programmes of study are typically made up of three (and occasionally four) Level 3 courses which can be A Levels or a blended pathway including equivalent qualifications such BTECs. We also offer all students the opportunity to apply to complete an Extended Project Qualification after their first term.

Another advantage is the way we organise our programmes by giving free choice at the application stage, and we then create our option blocks in accordance with choices to ensure the best fit for all.
