Middlesbrough College Parent Guide

Sports Academies All students have the opportunity to join one of seven sporting academies at the College. These include basketball, cricket, football, gymnastics, golf, table tennis and volleyball academies. Ran by a team of highly qualified coaches including ex-professional players and Olympians, each academy offers specialist coaching to develop sporting excellence. Successful applicants will have nine hours of coaching, training and fixtures per week.

Student Ambassador Scheme Students can join our fantastic Ambassador Scheme and get involved in a variety of College events such as open evenings, parents’ evenings and awards ceremonies. Being an Ambassador will allow your child to develop their confidence, meet new people, gain skills and develop their CV. National Citizen Service The NCS programme is a once in a life time experience for all 16 & 17 year olds. This government backed programme is UCAS recognised and highly valued by employers.

Thanks to Government backing, the most your child will pay for this is between £10 and £50 depending on your circumstances. For further information visit ncsnortheast.co.uk.
