You will be enrolling on 3 of the 4 subjects that you have been interviewed for. If you wish to change any of these subjects in advance of results day, please contact our A Level Administrators on the contact details provided above.

If you’re unable to attend the College on results day, it is very important that you still let us know your exam results, so that you are guaranteed your place on the appropriate course. Please phone or email your results to the A Level Administrators (or arrange for someone else to on your behalf).

You can collect your GCSE results from either Newcastle College or Stafford College on Thursday 22 August from the below location:

Newcastle College: Performing Arts Centre (opposite the main campus building) from 9am.

Stafford College: Library, Riverbank Building from 9am.

Please ensure you arrive to collect your results before 2pm. Otherwise, they will be sent to you by first class post.

If you do not achieve the exam results you were hoping for, it is important you still attend or contact us and we will help you to enrol on to another suitable course. We offer a number of courses at different levels, so try not to worry, there will be a course for you at the College.

If your exam results are better than you had expected (well done you!), we will refer you to a suitable course depending on your grades.

Unfortunately not. This year, we have received an unprecedented volume of applications and despite significant efforts to increase capacity in terms of teaching spaces and staffing, we are now in a position where demand has begun to outweigh the volume of places available in the college.

Call our main switchboards on the following numbers:

If you’ve been interviewed and offered a place on more than one course, please take the time to carefully consider which course will best meet your future career aspirations. You will need to select your preferred course when confirming your GCSE results and you will then be invited to a ‘Check Your Choice’ session, which will allow you to experience an introduction to this subject, meet your tutors and classmates and check out our facilities. If, after this session you decide to change your mind, there will be trained staff on hand to help support you in finalising your chosen study path.

We’ll have staff on hand to support you. If you meet the entry requirements and there are available places on the other course you'd like to enrol on, we'll do our best to make that happen.

If you're soaking up the sun or have an important commitment you can't rearrange, you need to do the following:

Either email/telephone all of your results to the contact details provided on your enrolment letter, or arrange for a representative to do this on your behalf.

IMPORTANT: If you haven't got the results required for your chosen course, you will need to let us know, as soon as you possibly can. Contact the administrator on your letter or if you can’t find your letter, call the main switchboard.
