Working in Partnership with Schools

West Thames College recognises the importance of working in partnership with you so that we can provide the advice and guidance your pupils need to make the best decision about their future.

Our staff have years of experience in delivering top quality vocational education and apprenticeships so we are able to explain to pupils and parents the options available. We can support your careers and guidance activities in several ways:

• We can provide staff to attend your careers fairs. We can explain the entry requirements, the transition from school to college and the courses and apprenticeships we offer.
• We have regular monthly tours and open days for individual students and their parents or groups of children to talk to members of staff and view the facilities.
• We host events in conjunction with leading local employers such as Sky, Premier Inn, Brentford Football Club and Heathrow Airport. See the events section for details.
• Each year we invite schools to enjoy the Creative Arts Festival, the annual showcase of stunning exhibitions and performances presented by our visual and performing arts and media students.
• The college has a state-of-the-art including a professional theatre, music recording and media studios, dance studios, construction workshops, hair, beauty and makeup studios and a training kitchen which are available for schools to book free of charge.

See our range of part-time and full-time specialist vocational courses for 14-16 year olds.

We can deliver subject presentations, taster sessions or lessons based on your requirements either at your school or at the college. For more information contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., School Liaison Officer.
