Swindon College offers the most comprehensive range of full-time courses in the area, with a mix of learning and training preparing students for employment and university study. We also offer excellent success and progression rates. Our industry-standard facilities – including engineering, construction, hospitality and catering, hairdressing, beauty and art, and design – make us the first choice for those considering vocational (work-related) courses in the region. Our new purpose-built construction center also provides excellent facilities for our brickwork and plastering students on our main campus at North Star. At Swindon College, we put students first. We are large enough to offer a full range of courses and facilities but small enough to care about individuals. All students have the benefits of a personal tutor and a team of highly-experienced professional teaching staff. We offer a range of courses at different levels. Many of our students enter further education programs, achieve and then progress on to full-time higher education courses at the college or universities around the country. Swindon College offers university-level courses at HNC/D, Foundation Degree, and BA (Hons) Degree. The college wants to ensure that you find the right course for you, and our friendly student services team is here to assist you with your decision. You will be fully supported throughout your course and in every aspect of college life during your time with us. A College Governing Body approximates a board of directors in a business enterprise, rather than the local government/community tradition of members representing particular sectional interest. The Board's thrust is outward-looking and primarily future-orientated, informing strategies and providing accountability for the college's past activities. External members of the Board consider themselves to be 'non-executive directors' of the college. Considerable freedom and discretion are given to the Principal for operational management. Corporate policies are approved by the Board, with the following procedures and plans being the responsibility of college management to agree and implement. If you are interested in becoming a Swindon College governor, we should be delighted to hear from you. Please click on Could You Be a College Governor for further information and an application form. The Governing Body comprises 17 governors, and the Governor Profiles are accessible directly from the Governance home page. The Governing Body and its committees meet regularly throughout the academic year. The Minutes of all these meetings are also available from this site, as are the College's Annual Accounts.- Swindon College offers the most comprehensive range of full-time courses in the area, with a mix of learning and training preparing students for employment and university study.
