School Leaver / 16 - 18 yr Old Vocational CoursesThis course is designed for young people who might find regular school challenging but are keen to advance in education. It is a specialised provision set up for young people who might struggle with their feelings, behaviour, or making friends. You will be in the right environment to grow more independent and get better at things like taking care of yourself, working and hanging out with others.
You will explore a range of subjects all designed to help you get ready for a job; like building self-esteem, managing your finances, trying out different jobs and getting involved in our community. We often adapt units to fit with your needs and aspirations.
At our Downham Market site class sizes are small and we're here to support you whenever you need it, as appropriate. Our ethos is built around helping you to achieve your potential.
Work experience is a big part of this course, as we believe you can go on to get a job or do an internship once you finish your year with us. So get ready to learn and have some fun along the way!
Whilst there are no formal entry requirements, you are required to show willingness to learn, participate in and develop skills in a college environment. Following an interview, it is expected that you will attend a taster session to determine suitability for the course and to ensure that your needs are met.
