Yeovil College Unveils Exciting New Facilities

Yeovil College is throwing open its doors for its first Full-time Information Evening of this academic year on Monday 17 October 2011.

This is the first event where visitors can see a number of brand new facilities, including Nexus and Renaissance - the College's brand new mall and refectory.

Nexus includes state-of-the-art Hospitality, Hair and Beauty training areas, where current students will be demonstrating their skills during the evening.

As well as touring the campus, prospective students can also meet staff to find out more about the exciting courses offered at Yeovil College and how they can help them fulfil their potential.

The College provides a wide range of courses to suit all ambitions, including A Levels, vocational courses and Apprenticeships, as well as specific programmes for Gifted and Talented and Foundation Learning students.

In addition, specialist support staff will be available to advise on other important topics, such as finance and travel.

A team of current Yeovil College students will also be on hand to talk about student life, including trips and other enrichment opportunities, such as sport and performing arts.

Director of 14-19 Curriculum Andy Perlejewski explains: "Information evenings, like our November taster days, are unique opportunities to get a real sense of Yeovil College and what it offers. At these events, visitors can ask all the important questions before making a potentially life-changing decision.

"Once again this year, Yeovil College students have achieved excellent full-time pass rates, including 99% for A Level courses and 95% for vocational courses, but events like these mean that visitors can look beyond the statistics and find out how Yeovil College can support them as individuals to achieve their full potential, whatever they may be."
