Information for parents and carers
We're not just about qualifications, we help to build characters and encourage students to express themselves and grow. With a wide range of diverse courses, our students have the chance to experience an exciting new atmosphere, meet new people and gain more independence.
We always welcome your support while your child is with us. Through face-to-face meetings, telephone calls or email contact, we value your input and feedback.
Our Student Services team makes sure that students get all the help and guidance they need, and our experienced tutors are dedicated to paving the way for our students to achieve at their highest potential. Careers Advisers will also be able to provide advice and guidance to ensure that your child is progressing onto the course that best suits their personal ambitions and career goals.

A parent's view
"During his final year of school, my son was totally undecided whether to remain at sixth form or move on to college.
"However, after visiting Weston College for an open evening made the decision easy. We received some fantastic advice and guidance on the courses and subjects available and were immediately impressed with the facilities.
"The entire process of choosing and applying for courses and enrolling was made simple and completely hassle-free - which really put our mind at rest as parents.
"My son thoroughly enjoys going to College every day and also gets involved in a number of activities that are also available. It's a decision he hasn't regretted for a second."
