Taster Events 2011/12

If you are in Year 10 or 11 you will no doubt be thinking about what to do when you leave school. It is important that you make the right decision for you. This year we are offering students a variety of vocational and academic tasters covering a wide range of subjects across our College centres.

This is a great opportunity to experience what it would be like to be a South NottinghamCollege student! Why should I attend a taster?

Why should I attend a taster?

• Find out about our courses, view the facilities and see first hand what South Nottingham College can offer you.

• Experience a hands on practical session.
• It’s an opportunity to meet people just like you!
