WHAT DO yOU WANT TO Be? ARCHITeCT Tobi BTEC Diploma Engineering (Level 2) "I came to an Open Day at City of Westminster College and loved it. I spoke to some lecturers and told them what I wanted to do, they told me that the course I'm doing now was the best way for me to progress in to this career path. It's a long way away from where I live too, which was a bonus for me. I would like to do Civil Engineering next or perhaps A-level Art & Design.�

A-levels We currently offer a wide selection of academic subjects and you will study AS levels in your first year and A2 levels in your second year. Our tutors can offer you advice on your preferences and guidance on the best combinations of subjects to take during interview stage. The College has an excellent track record in the teaching of Core Sciences, Maths, Humanities, Arts and English. Our students achieve better results than predicted and the pass rate is very high in all subjects. Successful completion at both AS and A2 level in the same subject leads to a full A-level qualification. Whether you take three or four subjects at AS level will depend on how well you do at GCSE level. You will normally specialise in three subjects at A2 level. We also offer a range of support to help you succeed, including homework classes, English language support, learning support and workshops in IT, numeracy and study skills. All our A-levels are based at our Paddington Green Campus (PGC). General entry requirements: To study three subjects at AS level, you will need to pass six GCSE subjects at grade A*-C, including English Language. To study four subjects, you need seven GCSE passes at grade A*-C, including English Language, with at least two subjects passed at grade B or above. Regardless of how many subjects you apply for, the expectation is that your qualifications will be obtained through examination and be completed courses. Other qualifications are valued and help us understand your strengths, but we will assess your application on your predicted or known GCSE grades only. Students with previous A-level experience, including re-sit applications Applications from students who have previously studied A-levels, either at AS or A2 level, including those seeking to re-sit, will be considered on a case-by-case basis only, even where general or subject-specific entry criteria are met. For specific entry criteria for each subject, please check our website www.cwc.ac.uk

WHAT DO yOU WANT TO Be? NURSe Jemma A-levels "I wanted to move away from my area as it's a bit rough. Lots of my friends stayed on at sixth form, but I wanted to come to a place where everyone has really chosen to be here - everyone wants to learn and has real aspirations. I'd like to become a nurse, probably specialising in therapy. I work with children at the moment and I'd like to go on to do a nursing degree once I finish my A-levels."

Teaching City of Westminster College offers both DTLLS and PTLLS courses for those wishing to undertake teacher training.
DTLLS The Level 5 Diploma in Teaching in the Lifelong Learning Sector (DTLLS) is the teaching qualification developed particularly for the full teaching role in further education. It prepares trainee teachers for a wide range of contexts. The qualification meets the requirements of the Further Education Teachers Qualifications (England) Regulations 2007. In order to gain full qualified status, teachers need to complete Qualified Teaching Learning and Skills (QTLS), through Professional Formation, on completion of their DTLLS. These courses can be studied full-time, over 1 Yr, or part-time over 2 Yrs. The full-time mode includes a full teaching placement and mentor. There is also the opportunity to follow a Literacy or ESOL specialist pathway. DIPLOMA IN LITERACY OR ESOL This top up qualification, for those that already have a general teaching qualification, is offered as a one year part-time evening programme. PTLLS The Level 3 or Level 4 Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector (PTLLS) is an introductory teaching qualification. It prepares learners for teaching and training in a wide range of contexts and does not require learners to be teaching whilst taking the qualification. The purpose and content of the Level 3 and Level 4 courses are the same. The qualification meets the requirements of the Further Education Teachers Qualifications (England) Regulations 2007, and achieving it will provide sufficient evidence that an individual has acquired the necessary skills and knowledge to teach beyond an initial year in the FE sector. This programme can be studied part-time in the evening, or as a more intensive day-time course.

Higher education City of Westminster College offers a range of higher education and training options for students who wish to move on to the next level of study through a Further Education College. Courses include part-time and full-time modes of study in Foundation Degrees, BTEC Higher National Certificates and Diplomas, Level 4 Apprenticeships and professional qualifications in some subject areas. If candidates do not have the relevant qualification or experience, the College offers a range of courses at Level 3 (including BTEC Diploma, Access to HE Diploma and A-level courses) to prepare them for Higher Education. We now offer a range of courses in subjects including Applied Biology, Building Services Engineering, Business, Computing & Systems Development, Construction & the Built Environment, Creative Music Production & Business, Photography, Science, Sport, and Travel & Tourism. The College has close links with employers to ensure that our vocational courses give you the skills and experience to progress into employment within your chosen industry. The College also has a progression agreement with local universities, enabling our students to enter their final year of a Degree programme after the completion of a Foundation Degree or Higher National Diploma with us.
Our Progression Pledge Our students enjoy their time here at City of Westminster College so much that they don’t want to leave us! This is partly why we have introduced new HE courses and we are planning to expand our offer. If you successfully complete your Level 3 (with ABB or equivalent grades), our Progression Pledge guarantees you the offer of a place on an appropriate Foundation Degree/Higher National qualification here at City of Westminster College (subject to a satisfactory interview, reference and application).
Affordable HE courses Our HE courses are more affordable than you might think (see page 78 for more information). With nothing to pay upfront, you will only have to pay back your tuition fee loan once you are earning a minimum of £21,000. For example, if you were earning £22,000 per year the repayment on a tuition fee loan might work out at just £7.50 per month.
020 7723 8826 www.cwc.ac.uk
53
Higher education Access to HE Diploma Our Access to HE Diploma courses are accredited by the Open College Network (London Region). These courses are designed for adults, who have previously missed opportunities to gain academic qualifications, so you do not need specific qualifications to get onto a course. However, you must be 19 years or over and committed to studying intensively. You must also demonstrate aptitude for this level of study by gaining satisfactory results in entry tests in literacy and, where relevant, numeracy. Access to HE courses equip students with high levels of motivation to move on to further study at university level and the College is proud of the many students who have succeeded in winning places at university – some with scholarships. Access to HE courses are equivalent to a Level 3 course like A-levels and BTEC Level 3.

WHAT DO yOU WANT TO Be? PROFeSSIONAL RUGBy PLAyeR Daniel IMI Diploma in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair (Level 2) "I come from a pretty deprived part of London - I thought if I moved away I'd be able to concentrate on my studies and it's worked. I train four times a week and I dedicate myself to being the best. I'm with London Irish and I have to make sure I'm on top of my game! I've been selected for the England Under-21s South Africa tour next year. If I don't become a professional rugby player I'd love to be an engineer for a top sports car brand like McLaren."

WHAT DO yOU WANT TO Be? MIDWIFe Dave Access to H.E. Diploma Nursing "6 years ago I delivered a baby in a pub I'd seen so much Holby City and Casualty I knew exactly what to do...! When the Paramedics arrived all they did was cut the umbilical cord, they said I'd done exactly what they would have done. I knew from then on that I wanted to go into nursing - I chose City of Westminster College because of the reputation for the course and how well it prepares you for a career - the teaching and support is amazing... I travel from a long way away every day, but it's worth it, there's nothing like it in my area.

Our newly appointed College Sports Maker has joined the Enrichment Team and we are now able to offer additional leisure based sports activities, from football or basketball to street dance. These activities will give students the opportunity to learn new skills, get involved in sports, volunteering, coaching or just have fun. For students who are interested in competitive sports, the College competes in London-wide basketball and table tennis leagues. The Enrichment Team also work in partnership with external services within the wider community to ensure that students can access support and information from organisations such as Brook and the Youth Project International. Other specialist agencies come in to deliver regular tutorials on issues such as drug dependency, budgeting and rights and responsibilities.

This is to ensure that the views and voices of students are heard by the College. It’s your Students’ Council – and that means you can take an active part in shaping it. We encourage you to develop clubs and societies based around your particular interests, organise trips, parties and various other leisure and sporting activities.
