At Newfriars College the careers programme provides information and experiences to help our young people, and their parents/carers make better informed and more confident decisions about future transitions, whatever the needs of the learner.

Newfriars College is committed to providing a planned programme of careers education, information, and guidance for learners in all years. The college works with an internal Careers Advisor to ensure all students have access to impartial careers advice from a Level 6 qualified Careers Advisor. We hope that all learners will leave Newfriars College with the skills and knowledge required to support their entry to employment, training, or Further Education. Newfriars Vocational College actively promotes parent/carer involvement through events, forums and ensuring access to information throughout the year.
