An education is more than just subject learning and qualifications. At Quarry Hill you will do more than study your course. With our programme of enrichment activities, social areas and pastoral support, coming to college is a rich and interesting experience that will see you gain skills and make memories that will last a lifetime.
There’s more to college than your classes. At Quarry Hill, we have a dedicated team of Enrichment staff to enhance your experience and develop your skills. In collaboration with departments, they ensure there are plenty of sports and wellbeing activities, social groups, trips, events and volunteering opportunities on offer, all designed to help you make the most of your time with us.
You can find out more about the activities, groups and societies at Leeds City College via the Student Union website.
Leeds City College Student Union
The Student Union is a student-run group that dedicates its time and resources to give the whole student community fairness, opportunities and a voice. Every year, each campus elects a campus student representative and President to ensure the student voice is heard at every level of the College. Hear from Qasim, your SU President for 24/25...
"There is a great community feel at college that encourages personal growth and provides ample opportunities for students to explore their potential. Recognising that the transition from school to college can be challenging, the Students' Union is dedicated to ensuring that this is as easy as possible. We value student views and will represent you across the college to ensure that you are heard. We also work with staff to ensure the college is inclusive and accessible so that you get a great student experience."

College is an important step on your education journey – it can be your route to university, onto an apprenticeship or into employment. While you’re here we want you to enjoy your course, develop your skills and learn all you can, but we also care about what happens next. At Quarry Hill, you will have access to expert careers advisors and work placement staff who are here to help you plan and prepare for your post-college move. From working out what you might do next, based on your interests and skills, to applying for jobs, university or apprenticeships, the Careers, Work Placement and Progression Team is here for you.
