WELCOME
welcomewelcome Welcome to New College Doncaster’s prospectus for 2022. As the only sixth form college in Doncaster, we provide a unique young adult experience for our students. Moving from school to a sixth form college allows young people to flourish both academically and personally. It is an opportunity to meet new people, make new friends, get involved in new things and enjoy many new subjects. We are small enough to ensure that we really get to know you and provide you with all the support you need. We are large enough to be able to offer a very wide range of A-Levels and Level 3 Applied General Qualifications. We were extremely proud to rank at the top of the DfE performance tables in Doncaster. Students make outstanding progress in both A-Level and BTEC courses and the college ranked 4th nationally in the most recent tables for achievement rates within sixth form colleges. Although results in 2021 were produced differently due to coronavirus, student results continued to go from strength to strength. The college has secured its position as the largest specialist 16-19 provider of A-Level qualifications in Doncaster with a strong track record both locally and regionally.

Principal - New College Doncaster Alongside our extensive academic curriculum is the personal development curriculum. Our extensive enrichment programme helps students to broaden their skills, gain confidence and develop cultural capital. Our students are well supported in their readiness to move to the very best degrees, apprenticeships and jobs, with valuable engagement with universities, employers and work experience. This prospectus will give you a good introduction to the very wide range of courses that we offer. We would love to meet you in person at one of our open events taking place throughout the year. These are a great opportunity to meet our teachers face-to-face, to see our facilities, to get a feel for our culture, and to find out more about our courses. I look forward to meeting you then.
Here at New College, the staff are truly committed to helping young people gain the qualifications and skills they need to progress to their chosen destination, as well as grow as an individual. My passion for working with young people continues to grow as I pull from my wide experience as a curriculum leader, classroom teacher and senior leader. I am incredibly proud to be part of the leadership team at college and I look forward to welcoming you to one of our open events.
