College Open Events happen more than once throughout the year but the main periods are:
Autumn Term (Sept-Dec) aimed predominantly at Year 11s
Summer term (May-July) aimed predominantly at Year 10s
All are welcome at any event. The timings just reflect that in the Autumn term the Year 11s are about to complete their applications.
The summer term is a good time for Year 10s to start thinking about their options, with the ability to return again when they are in Year 11 and about to apply

Army Day
Army Day
On Tuesday 16th January, members of the British Army came in to spend the morning with our students. They gave a briefing on careers in the army and then set the students a range of team tasks, including using a pack of resources to create a useful product that the students then had to pitch to the soldiers. They also got to try on some of the kit!

Youth Impact: Empowering Young People with Skills, Confidence, and Community Spirit
In response to the government’s decision to end funding for the NCS programme, Your Sports Education has developed an exciting opportunity for young people across the South West and South East of England: the Youth Impact Programme. This dynamic 5-day course is designed to equip teens with essential life skills, boost their confidence, and help them build meaningful connections — all while giving back to their local communities. Best of all, it’s just £99!
So, What Is Youth Impact?
Youth Impact is a 5-day programme (Monday to Friday, 10am-4pm) designed to engage and empower young people aged 15-17 (year 11 or year 12). It’s packed with fun, interactive activities that will help your teen develop new skills, build confidence, and make lasting friendships, all while giving back to the local community. Here’s a sneak peek at what they can expect:
Community Monopoly Challenge: A fun, team-based activity that helps your teen explore and engage with their local community.
Teambuilding Games: Designed to improve communication, leadership, and teamwork, all while having fun.
First Aid Workshop: Practical, life-saving skills that can enhance their CV and give them confidence in emergency situations.
Public Speaking Workshop: Helping your teen develop confidence and presentation skills that will benefit them in school, college, and future careers.
Debates and Discussions: Engaging in important conversations about issues that matter to young people today.
Community Action Project: Your teen will choose a project that allows them to give back to their local community, gaining a sense of achievement and pride in their efforts.
Why Should You Sign Up for Youth Impact?
This programme offers a wide range of benefits that will set your teen up for success — both now and in the future:
Boost their CV: Youth Impact adds valuable skills and experience to their CV, demonstrating initiative, commitment, and community involvement.
Enhance college applications: This programme makes an excellent addition to college applications, showing that your teen is proactive and engaged.
Gain essential life skills: Youth Impact will help improve your teen’s confidence, communication skills, and teamwork — all key to succeeding in education and beyond.
Make new friends: The programme is a great opportunity for your teen to meet like-minded peers they’ll continue to see in college.
Give back to the community: The Community Action Project gives your teen the chance to volunteer and contribute meaningfully to their local area.
It’s fun and rewarding: Beyond the skills they’ll gain, Youth Impact is an enjoyable, action-packed week that your teen won’t forget.
