Opportunities for access

Please speak to our Careers Advisor to identify the most suitable opportunity for you. The school will make a suitable space available for discussions between the provider and specialist equipment to support provider presentations. This will all be discussed and agreed in advance of the visit with the Careers Advisor or a member of their team. Providers are welcome to leave a copy of their prospectus or other relevant course literature with the Careers Advisor so that they can be displayed in the Careers Section of the school library.
