Post-16 College Open Events
To help our students and their families plan their next steps, we have compiled a comprehensive list of local colleges alongside direct links to their upcoming open events. If you are considering a college pathway for your Post-16 education, we highly recommend starting your campus visits during Year 10 so you can explore your options early.
Please note that all formal applications must be submitted to your Local Authority (LA) by 31st October of Year 11. However, you can and should continue to attend college open days and taster events throughout Year 11 to help aid your transition and make your final decision.
