How to Use this Directory

Two key questions asked by learners when choosing a specialist college are:

• Will the college meet my needs?
• Where is it?

This website offers a number of ways to access college details; alphabetical listing, interactive map, and the College Finder.

The Curriculum and Support offered to Learners can be used as a checklist to choose which colleges are most suitable.  By matching the requirements of the prospective student against this checklist, it is possible to select a shortlist of colleges.

All colleges can be contacted for their current prospectus.

Colleges that have been inspected by Ofsted since January 2002 have their reports published on the Ofsted website, www.ofsted.gov.uk
