    It was a pleasure to welcome your fantastic Year 10 students to our NCC campus for their taster sessions.

    Azz from Myerscough college, Preston, attended our school last week for a lunchtime drop-in session. Every student had the opportunity to speak to Azz at lunchtime.

  • Careers ambassadors – Teacher treats!

    Published 15/07/25

    A huge shout out to our career ambassadors who have been working really hard, staying behind every Thursday to think about ways of promoting careers within school, thinking about competitions and raising money for their club! A couple of weeks ago, they thought of a great idea to raise money. They spoke to members of staff and took pre-orders, stayed behind on the Thursday to bake the old school cakes and delivered them to staff on the Friday! They showed fantastic teamwork skills, organisation and dedication, staying behind to ensure that the cakes were made! Every member of staff who bought a cake thoroughly enjoyed their treat, and they are looking forward to ordering again soon. Well done!

  • Year 10 MEGA day at Nelson and Colne College

    Published 15/07/25

    Some of our year 10 students had the opportunity to attend the ‘MEGA’ day at Nelson and Colne College. The day began with a talk by a member of the ‘National Cyber Force’.

The National Cyber Force shared valuable information linking to careers within the North West relating to cybersecurity, and they informed our students about how this is growing every year. This day allowed students to start thinking about the potential opportunities which they could access in the future. A brilliant day was had by all! Well done to the year 10’s who attended!
