Make your next move and unlock your potential

Leicester College offers a wide range of vocational, BTEC and T level courses… all of which aim to help you achieve your future goals.

Join us on 29 October 2024 between 5 pm – 7:30 pm (last entry 7pm) at our three campuses to find out more about our offer. We’ll also be handing out our limited-edition LC yoyos*, so bring your tricks with you.

Our Post-16 Open Event is for those under 19 looking to enrol on a full-time course, learn more about apprenticeships and gather information on our student support services.

Tutors and current students will also be here on the day to show you our facilities, answer your questions and provide advice and guidance to set you on the right path for your next steps.

The support teams will be at most campuses to discuss careers advice, funding and bursaries and transition support from school to college.
