Wiltshire College & University Centre Pre-16 Offer

Pre-16 offer

We appreciate that traditional secondary education is not a perfect fit for everyone, and that individuals learn in diverse ways.

Our Pre-16 provision offers an accessible, dynamic curriculum that emphasises practical learning experiences where students are empowered to explore their interests and passions through hands-on activities. 

It is available for young people in Year 10 and Year 11 who are enrolled with a school who apply on their behalf. Currently, we do not accept direct applications from parents/ carers or from students who are home educated.

Schools are invited to email pre-16@wiltshire.ac.uk to commence the application process.

“I like coming to college because it is much more hands on and I can get stuck in!”
