COLLABORATION SUBJECTS 2024-2026

We are delighted to work in collaboration with our partner institutions, Bassaleg School, John Frost School, Newport High School and Coleg Gwent as part of the Newport West Consortium of 16-19 providers (click on the school name to go to their website). Working in collaboration with each other has permitted our students the opportunity to study a far greater range and variety of subjects, and has ensured that over 30 different A Levels are offered to our students. This scheme has been running smoothly for the last two years, enabling our students and others from across the city to study courses which otherwise may not have been available.
