Brooklands Experience

Welcome to our very first virtual Brooklands Experience!

We have held this event every year predominantly for Year 10’s at our campuses to give them a real insight into the courses we provide. This year of course it has not been possible, but that wasn’t going to stop us and we would like you to attend a very special virtual event! We would also welcome students from Year 11 who, because of the current situation, have not been able to visit the College.

We have provided a series of links to work through and, at the end, we hope that you will have a clearer understanding of the courses and career paths available to you.

You can do this at your own pace and visit as many course options as you wish. We hope you find the Experience both informative and enjoyable.

The questionnaire at the end will provide our schools with a register of the students that have attended so please take the time to complete this.

Good luck and enjoy!!

Section 1: Get Started

We invite you to view an introduction to Brooklands College. Brooklands College provides an excellent range of vocational courses at all levels. Vocational courses provide a more practical, real world approach to learning, combining theory with practical work. The skills you learn improve your employability and are highly regarded by employers and HE establishments alike.

The College also offers a range of apprenticeships which are becoming increasingly popular with students who wish to still gain qualifications but earn a salary at the same time.
