College programmes to get students back into education
Both programmes launch on Monday, January 22.
The first is a Level 1 Extended Certificate in Vocational Studies. The college is responding to local needs, working with West Sussex County Council and other partners to
address the needs of young people in Worthing and Adur not in employment, education or training. The outcome for students completing the course is to allow them to progress onto Level 2 Vocational Courses,
take up an apprenticeship or employment.

2019, along with their peers who started the courses in September this year.
Paul Riley, Worthing College principal, said: ““Both the Level 1 and Level 3 vocational courses which start on January 22, will enable students in our local area to have what is often a much needed opportunity
to get back on track or to have a fresh start if their progression after leaving school has not been right for them.

for a better, brighter future.
“This is something we are passionate about addressing as we deliver our college mission: to inspire, build confidence and prepare you for the life you want to live.”
