How will I be treated at Cherwell College?

Cherwell specialises in helping 16-19 year olds in achieving the qualifications needed to take you to university and beyond. Coming to the end of compulsory schooling can be liberating but can also be troubling. There are so many directions for life. We help you understand your options, decide on your direction, then offer you first rate support to achieve your goal.

With an absolute focus on you as an individual, we listen to you, learn about your interest, ambitions and concerns. We then design a course of study that best reflects your ability and interests. If you have a clear goal we will ensure that you are working steadily towards it. If your goal remains unclear, we will ensure that you include subjects for study that will keep your options, for university and for a future career.

Young adults need to be supported as they work to understand the balance between the demands of study and the practicalities of everyday life. Our students are very closely supported but are also encouraged to stand more and more on their own feet, to gain a foretaste of what a university will expect of them.

Our aim is to send you on to university and to a career where you will be able to work independently to the benefit of yourself and those around you.
