Southchurch Vocational College

The Big Little College

SVC_LOGO_CMYK_1Southchurch Vocational College was set up to bridge the gap between School and College. We provide work based learning opportunities for young people aged 14-19 who have learning or emotional difficulties.

We are the Big Little College meaning we offer BIG support in a LITTLE building. Moving from your well supported School to a large College may mean that you need a little extra support. Here at SVC we are BIG in helping someone like you to make it to the larger Colleges after a year with us, but still LITTLE enough to know YOU as an individual and help YOU every step of the way.

Here at SVC we offer two Foundation Learning Programmes which are designed to help YOU to move on to a larger place of education.

Our sports course, Active Future, is based around sport and fitness.activefutures With this you get to use a state of the art gym and sports hall. All training is carried out by a highly trained fitness instructor.

IFS_LOGO_FINAL_RGB_SMALLIf sport is not your thing we also offer a cooking course, Ingredients for Success. This is based around cooking and healthy lifestyles. With this you will get to use our working kitchens, take part in running our onsite cafe and get to keep all of your cooking creations.

With both courses you also get the opportunity to improve your:
  • Functional Skills (Maths, English & ICT)
  • Employability Skills
  • and your Personal and Social Development

Both courses are for one year, starting in September and ending the following July.

If you think one of these sounds like the course for you then please contact us at Southchurch Vocational College on:
