School Partnership Programmes

At New College Lanarkshire we pride ourselves on having strong relationships with schools, local authorities and employers.

 

Study at NCL while still at school.

For many years, our School-College Partnership Team has worked hard to build and sustain an exciting and innovative vocational education programme aimed at S4 to S6 pupils, to complement the Senior Phase of Curriculum for Excellence.

As part of their options choices, pupils from S4 and above at partnership schools are given the opportunity to study a college programme as part of their weekly timetable. With a wide range of courses to choose from at NCL, pupils can gain invaluable practical experience in a subject area of their choice, which can ultimately lead to exciting new career opportunities.

Our comprehensive programme sees more than 2,000 school pupils either visiting the College or being taught by College lecturers every week and our aim is to help all pupils reach their full potential.

You can contact our schools team by emailing schools@nclan.ac.uk.
