Doncaster College Taster Day

C25 students attended a taster day at Doncaster College on Tuesday 28th June 2022. The year 10 students attended a session of their choosing where they discovered how that course is delivered at the college and were given a small taste of college life. They had the opportunity to tour the extended site to give them an insight into everything that the college can offer on their 16-18 programme and also the university centre. They also had lunch and attended a lecture theatre where they learned more about what Doncaster College deliver in both technical courses, T levels and apprenticeships. The students came away from the day smiling and full of ideas about the next step in their academic journey once they complete GCSEs next year and fly the XP/East nest.

Each student will have an opportunity to get a taste of the subject they chose and a tour of the campus. The college’s recent Ofsted gave them good with several outstanding elements and have a large range of non A level subjects and apprenticeships available. https://www.don.ac.uk/school-leavers/.
