Year 10 College Visits
Attending Open Events and college visits are essential to supporting post-16 choices. Visiting a college could inspire you and change your future plans or support the plans you already have.
As part of our commitment to supporting students with their next steps, we are excited to offer Year 10 students the opportunity to visit local post-16 providers. Greenhead College, Kirklees College, and The Creative and Media Studio School will be hosting taster sessions, allowing students to explore potential subjects they may wish to study after high school.
As always, it is crucial that students adhere to any deadlines so they don’t miss out on any visits.
Kirklees College - bookings have closed
Out Centres - Brunel, Taylor Hill and Engineering Taster Sessions, Monday 30 June 2025 - times TBC
Huddersfield Centre, Taster Sessions, Tuesday 1 July 2025 – times TBC
Limited transport may be available. Where possible, it would be helpful if students can make their own way to the college and back to school afterwards. Further information about the visit will be shared nearer the time.
