Hello and welcome to Post-16. I hope these pages give you a real flavour of what we are about and what we can offer you as you move forward with your studies.
At Okehampton College Post-16, our vision links to Opportunity, Curriculum and Community.
We believe in an inclusive Post-16 with opportunities for all students to achieve their full potential. Students studying courses in recent years have gone in to full-time employment, apprenticeship placements and university courses including Oxford and Cambridge. Opportunity is also about experiencing new things like trips to employers, Naples, University taster days and social activities.
Our curriculum offer is broad and balanced and offers students the chance to study a range of courses which you can read about in this booklet. We also offer an extensive personal development and enrichment program to go alongside the vocational and academic program of study.
Community is something I feel very passionate about. This is a local post-16 for provision for the students of okehampton and surrounding area. How we connect with that community matters and all students joining the 6th form will be part of volunteering and establishing a thriving and exciting social environment within the Wardhayes centre and beyond.
I hope that you find what you are looking for from our wide range of courses, and that you are excited about the next stage of your education.
The next few pages go through the procedure of applying but please feel free to contact myself or any of the Post-16 team should you have additional questions. We look forward to seeing lots of you with us in September.
