College Open Days

We advise parents to visit colleges/other settings, where possible, to get a feel for the environment and whether it would suit your young person and meet their needs. There are open days for most settings- many are listed below. Alternatively, you can contact the setting directly to make an appointment to view and meet with staff. You may choose to do this with or without your young person.

If you would like to take your young person to view a setting during the school day so that you can see it ‘in action’ (as it would be when they attend) we can authorise this- please just let us know.

We also offer Virtual Open Day events to provide an insight into student life and a chance to meet our Vice Principal for Quality and Curriculum who will share more details of what the college has to offer.
