Year 10 Taster Days are aimed at any students wishing to consider NEW College as a post-16 option.

At a Taster Day, unless you attend a school very close to the College eg Carleton Community High School or The Kings School a coach will collect you from your school and bring you directly to college.

You will have already have selected the five subject areas you want to experience in advance of attending the Taster Day.  On the day you will be welcomed by existing students, staff and receive a short welcome talk by both the Principal Pauline Hagen and myself (Richard Fletcher - Vice Principal Development, Innovation, Growth and Success).  You will then go directly to your first taster session and then carry on to the rest of your chosen subjects.

Hopefully, this experience will give you an idea of which subjects you would like to pursue in the future or indeed help you to decide whether NEW College and A Levels are right for you.

I would welcome any feedback from your ‘taster day’ experience.
