Students on this programme benefit from a wide range of trips, visits and enrichment opportunities. The College has a dedicated crime scene room, an incident room and a sports hall, fitness suite and drill hall.

You'll also help to develop the curriculum and grow our subject provision, driving key improvements in this area.

Teaching hours may be at either of the Southport Education Group’s two sites, KGV Sixth Form College (Scarisbrick New Road) and Southport College (Mornington Road).
