14-16

If you're 14 - 16, you can study at ncn as part of your year 10 and 11 GCSE studies at school.

These courses are a fantastic opportunity to learn something new that you cannot learn at your school. For example, at ncn you can learn:

  • Childcare/Early Years
  • Construction
  • Fashion Design
  • Hairdressing
  • Hospitality/Catering

And more!

How can I apply?

Your school must choose to offer these programmes as part of their GCSE choices, and not all schools in the City or County Local Authority (LA) choose to do this. You must apply in Year 9 and be ready to start in the September of Year 10.

If you are interested in these courses please see your 14 - 19 Co-ordinator, Connexions Advisor or your Head of Year in school.

If you're looking to study full time at ncn after Year 11, please see Full-Time Study at ncn section.
