Megan Nichols, Vice Principal Higher Education, is proud of the unique learning environment at New College Durham. She said: “Learning is delivered in informal classroom settings and class sizes are kept small to provide a supportive and friendly learning experience. Many of the courses are available on a full or part-time basis with flexible study options to fit around work or family commitments.”
Developing students’ employability skills is high priority. Employers play a part in the design of many courses and provide industry visits, work placements, guest speakers and live client briefs. It’s no surprise that 97% of New College Durham graduates progress to employment or further study.
