College

St Catherine's College supports both day and residential students aged 16 to 19. The college exists to provide students with a further period of education in small-group settings to improve their learning skills.

Academically, our aim is to provide education appropriate to the skills and ambitions of each students. This will involve engaging in GCSE programmes, BTEC, where appropriate, and other vocational courses. 

Our college site is set away from our school site and residential centre, to encourage our students to develop their independence and support their transition into adulthood.
