As a parent or carer, you may be wondering just how and where you can provide support for your young person. Whilst our expectation is that our students will show commitment to their study with us, and take responsibility for reaching their own goals, we’re aware that College is a big change from school life and can be, for some, a challenging transitional period.

We believe that parents play a vital support role in providing help and encouragement at every point in a student’s time with us. You are an important element in our Partnership of Support for every student. We welcome your participation in the students' learning programmes, from the early stages of applying for a place to nearing course completion.

We publish a newsletter for parents of 16-19 year old students every term, which gives you important need-to-know information as well as provides a flavour of the sort of initiatives and events happening at the College. Click here for our most recent newsletters.

We like to encourage you to talk to us and to raise any questions you have, at any stage– we are happy to help.
