Further education (FE) covers the types of education which go beyond what has been achieved in compulsory education, but which are not at degree level (Higher Education). Typically, further education includes A levels, AS levels and vocational qualifications.
The largest group of people in further education are those aged between 16 and 19, but many other people undertake full-time or part-time further education.
We are a College of further and higher education. We offer a wider range of courses than sixth form colleges and we provide education and training for students aged 19 and over, as well as for full-time 16 to 19 year olds.
