At NWSLC, we recognise that a traditional classroom setting may not be suitable for everyone. That’s why we offer a flexible, supportive environment for 14–16-year-olds who need something a little different alongside their Home education studies.
Our College Open Event is designed for parents and students aged 14–16 who are seeking a more flexible and supportive learning environment, where the unique qualities a young person brings to the classroom are valued.
Explore hands-on courses, smaller learning groups, and pathways that build confidence, skills, and motivation. Visitors can arrive at the college from 4:00pm to have a look around and speak with staff. During the evening, there will be two presentation sessions (4:30pm and 5:45pm), allowing you to choose the time that works best for you.
Join our College Open Event and discover how we help young people succeed:
