Student Recruitment

Leicester College’s Student Recruitment Officer provides a crucial link between city and county schools and the College.

The Officer attends all the city and county school careers events, offering advice and information on the courses Leicester College offers, the application process and answers questions concerning college life. Events include Year 11 careers evenings, parents’ evenings, careers fairs and talks.

The officer organises the following interactive careers events for schools:

They give prospective learners a chance to experience College facilities, meet our learners and speak to specific curriculum staff on particular courses.

Careers Talks

Our careers talks provide information on post-16 options for schools either on particular subject areas or a general overview of what the College offers.
