Swindon College offers the widest range of full-time courses in the area with a mix of learning and training; preparing students both for employment and for 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 centre also now 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 programmes, achieve and then progress on to full-time higher education courses here at the college or at 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.
College Governance encompasses the work and responsibilities of the College Governing Body, its relationships with college senior managers and auditors/regulators, and its wider relationships with the college’s stakeholders - students, staff, employers, government agencies, and local community groups. The Governing Body takes its legal and community responsibilities seriously and governors are committed to acting in the best interests of the college at all times.
A College Governing Body approximates to a board of directors in a business enterprise, rather than the local government/community tradition of members representing particular sectional interest. The thrust of the Board’s work is outward looking and primarily future orientated in forming strategies as well as providing accountability for past activities of the college.
External members of the Board consider themselves to be ‘non-executive directors’ of the college. Considerable freedom and discretion is given to the Principal for operational management. Corporate policies are approved by the Board with the ensuing procedures and plans being the responsibility of college management to agree and implement.
If you are interested in becoming a governor of Swindon College, 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 is made up of 17 governors and the Governor Profiles are accessible directly from the Governance home page.
The Governing Body and its committees meet on a regular basis throughout the academic year and the Minutes of all these meetings are also available from this site, as are the College’s Annual Accounts.
