Open Days:

Open Days are an opportunity for pupils and their parents/carers to come to the College, meet teachers and current students and learn more about courses and subjects. Presentations will give pupils an overview of subject/course content, skills, teaching and learning opportunities and assessment methods. Presentations will be available for all subjects/courses including Level 2 courses such as GCSEs and Level 3 courses such as A Level and BTEC Diploma courses. If you have any individual enquiries about the application process for this year, please contact the Admissions Team, on 01708 514400.

"The transfer programme with partner schools raises learners' aspirations very successfully... There are good information sessions for parents/carers."

Interviews:

We have revised our interview process and interviews for both partner and non-partner schools will now be held during the week beginning 4th April 2011during the day at the College. We positively encourage and support parent/guardian involvement in this process and hope that they are able to accompany their son/daughter.

We will not interview all non-Havering applicants. Applicants who are offered an interview will be given Information, Advice and Guidance on their chosen course(s).

All offers are conditional on achieving specific grades at GCSE. These grades will be discussed at your interview and confirmed in writing. Students who do not achieve the required grades should inform the College when the results are received. It may not be possible to place you on an alternative course if you do not achieve your target grades.

Initial Induction for new students:

Applicants who are offered a place will be expected to attend our Freshers' Week which takes place the week beginning Monday 4th July 2011.

"... a good induction programme ensures that learners make well-informed choices and settle quickly into their studies."
