I was really worried I wasn’t going to pass but I got a C in English Language AND Literature! I’m also really pleased we’ve both done well in our vocational courses. One of the best things I have ever done is come to the 14-16 College full time!”

I’m really proud ofmy overall results, if I hadn’t moved to the College there is no way I would have achieved this. I wouldn’t have been successful if Ihad stayed at my old school.”

How it works...Core GCSEs

The range of vocational courses include:

Specialist Pathways

An academic timetable takes up the significant part of every student’s studies. Core GCSEs are a mandatory part of mainstream studies and gaining English & maths will be a priority in order to provide wider progression options for all students. Students will study core GCSEs and personal development subjects as well as having a choice of vocational subjects.

Students will each choose two specialist vocational subjects from a range of pathways. Studying over two years, students will gain a depth of knowledge, practical skill and expertise. All vocational qualifications are equivalent to GCSEs and help students gain a fuller understanding of their chosen industries.Having the opportunity to experience a range of different subjects will help students to develop their future aspirations and employability and begin to understand their strengths, interests and skills and how they can be applied to the wider world of work.

Safeguarding & SupportStudent Care & Support

Child Safety

The Pupil Premium Transport

At the 14-16 College a wide network of support systems are in place to ensure the safety, development and wellbeing of every student. Students are supported in their studies by tutors and learning advisors.

Behaviour and attendance issues are assessed, monitored and pastoral support is given to students to improve. The College counsellor provides students with a confidential ear and a guarantee that their concerns and problems will be taken seriously.

The Welfare teams throughout the College also maintain an environment in which students can feel safe and external professionals work with the College to provide extra support where necessary with learning, medical or additional needs.

In addition to the robust Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults policy that already exists, the 14-16 College takes extra steps to safeguard the wellbeing of our students. A College uniform supports the Safeguarding policy with branded 14-16 T-shirts and sweatshirts to ensure under 16 students are identifiable around the College site. Lanyards are also used for identification and access into College buildings. These must be worn at all times.

Students have direct access to the secured 14-16 College zone, which is strictly regulated and monitored and is only accessible for 14-16 College students. The 14-16 College works with parents and carers as well as agency links to support child safety and wellbeing. The attendance officer will notify parents of absences and latecomers, as well as actioning attendance issues.

Pupil Premium funding is available for those students eligible for free school meals (or have been eligible for free school meals in the past 6 years), ‘looked after’ children and children from service families. The Pupil Premium is designed to provide additional resources to help children raise their achievement levels.

Parents are asked to complete an application for free transport which is processed by the local authority. If students are not eligible for free transport the college heavily subsidies the weekly bus ticket costs.

Alongside the technical knowledge you will gain as part of your vocational study programme, there’s also a range of generic ‘Employability’ skills that employers require you to have in order for you to be an effective member of their business. Employability Skills can also be referred to as ‘transferable’ or ‘life-long’ skills. This means that they are necessary and useable in any role, any business or any industry and you can continually improve them. The more developed your employability skills, the better progress you will make in your chosen career.

Work ExperienceYear 10 is a crucial time for all students to explore the career pathways available to them. Work experience is an integral part of work based learning and a fantastic opportunity for students to experience working in a real life environment. Work experience will enable them to develop new skills and link their learning to real life situations.

Students attend a work placement of their choice for two full weeks, observing, working alongside and being supervised by, an employer, ideally related to a career pathway they are interested in. This experience has been proven to help student’s personal and social development, aiding the development of key employability skills and improving chances of future employment and study. Attendance will be monitored as normal and students will be required to complete a Work Experience Journal that will highlight the skills and knowledge they have acquired and help to develop their careers profile in Year 11 using the Log On Move On website.

Many of our students have gained some fantastic feedback from their work experience placements, and all students have gained invaluable knowledge & skills that will benefit them in the future.
