Welcome to Stoke Studio College - Opening 2012
Stoke on Trent College, in co-operation with the Discovery Academy and the Centre of Refurbishment Excellence
(CoRE), is undertaking an exciting new partnership in education, training and employment to launch a new
Studio College in Stoke on Trent. It will be the first of its kind in the area and will provide a world class educational
experience when it opens in September 2012.
We believe that Stoke on Trent will benefit from a different type of education which can meet the needs of students of all abilities through a new and innovative approach to teaching and learning. The College will raise aspirations and create opportunities for young people, aged 14-19, to develop the skills and experience essential for success in the workplace.
The curriculum will be tailored to individual needs and will focus on vocational qualifications in Construction
and the Built Environment, Technology and Enterprise alongside a selection of GCSE qualifications. (Download our prospectus now)
In addition, students will gain real work experience and valuable skills to help them complete their studies. Stoke on Trent College has strong links with local employers, currently enjoying a working partnership with 1,400 companies ranging from local owner-managed concerns to multi-national brands, and is well placed to secure placements for Stoke Studio College students.
Firm commitments have been secured from our partners to deliver a wide range of activities, including:
- • Work placements
- • Trainee/internship placements
- • CV writing and interview skills workshops
- • Enterprise events
- • Shadowing specific job roles
- • Curriculum and project design and delivery
Each year, the College will offer approximately 50 places to year 10 and 11 students, and 100 places to year 12+ students.
