“Hairdressing wasn’t something I wanted to do from the beginning. I started working for Scots Hair Design on Saturdays and decided I really enjoyed it. This then gave me the opportunity to start an apprenticeship with them, so I could progress in my career and gain a qualification at the same time. I would really recommend this course to other students. You have to be ready to work hard, stand for long periods at a time and work long hours, but the end result is worth it. I am looking forward to progressing to the Level 3, my future aspirations would be to do session work at shows at events such as London Fashion Week.”

Leaving school is an exciting time, but it can be daunting too with so many study options and possible career paths to choose from. Here at Grantham College & University Centre, we help young people explore their options and the potential career progression that each study option could lead to.
Unlike 6th Form, Grantham College & University Centre offers a more vocational experience for students, with opportunities to Experience the world of work while you’re learning and get the skills you need for your next step, whether that’s employment, an apprenticeship, or a degree.
At Grantham College & University Centre there are different study routes that young people can take after leaving school; Full-time Study Programmes and Apprenticeship Programmes. Full-time Programmes are suited to those who enjoy the routine of timetabled learning, working on group projects and aren’t quite ready for the world of full time work, whereas Apprenticeship Programmes are for those who are eager to get into the workplace and learn skills on the job whilst getting paid. Both routes can lead onto Higher Education or career progression.
Set yourself apart from the rest by immersing yourself into a professional and dynamic learning environment, with state-of -the-art facilities. Many of your tutors will have many years of working in industry so will have expert and relevant knowledge to pass on to ensure our students are career-ready

CONTACT US“I recommend the HNC/HND Arts Practice course to other students as it is very independent, and you are treated like an adult. Grantham College has helped me understand what I have to do to get the grades I want and have helped me with my dyslexia. You can work at your own pace, choose the direction and outcome you want. The course is very diverse, and you get a lot of group opinions and ideas.”
