About BTECs
BTECs are practical, skills-based qualifications that focus on coursework, projects, and applied learning. They are ideal for students who enjoy a hands-on approach and want to progress at a pace that suits their current qualifications.
Our Sixth Form also gives students the flexibility to specialise in a technical qualification, or to combine A Levels with a technical qualification, an opportunity rarely available at other sixth forms.

Entry requirements vary by course. Some courses may have additional subject-specific requirements.
