GCSE Results Day is almost here, and invariably it comes with a mixture of trepidation, excitement, joy and sometimes a tinge of disappointment depending upon the results you have got.
But no matter what the day brings, don’t panic, the likelihood is that there is a course for you at Hadlow College.
At our beautiful campus we offer a range of courses covering a wide variety of potential career paths.
But first, let’s answer some questions you might have after opening your GCSE results:
Does it matter if I didn’t achieve a grade 4 in English or Maths?
You could be able to continue to learn English and/or Maths alongside your chosen course and then resit the subjects to ensure you have the qualifications before you leave Hadlow College.
If your grade is a 2 or below you will need to undertake functional skills learning, this teaches the understanding of English and Maths, but through a vocational context.
* the above is subject to discussions with specific curriculum teams and dependent upon the course applied for.
I’ve decided I don’t want to stay at school, and I want to come to Hadlow College, is that possible?
Definitely!
We are holding GCSE Information Days at our Hadlow campus on Thursday 22 August and Friday 23 August, from 10.00am to 4.00pm.
These specially organised days are for young people have not yet applied to Hadlow College and allow you to talk to our tutors and careers team to find the best option for you with a view to starting in September.
I can’t make the GCSE Information Day, does that mean I can’t come to Hadlow College?
No it doesn’t.
If you can’t make our GCSE Information Days, just visit our Hadlow campus on Monday 2 September or Tuesday 3 September between the hours of 10.00am and 4.00pm and we can discuss your options for starting this September.
I did not get the grades I was hoping for, can I still come to Hadlow College?
As mentioned earlier, we have a huge range of courses on offer for students of all levels.
Even if you didn’t get the grades you were hoping for, the likelihood is there might be an option that suits you.
