A Levels - City of Wolverhampton College

A LEVELS

A Levels are a great way to prepare for university-level study and we are here to guide you along the way. We will help you towards achieving the grades you need and choosing the university, institution or higher-apprenticeship that’s right for you.

With a range of A Levels on offer – many of which are different to those on offer at school – you really can #defineyourfuture at college!

What you can expect from us

Studying isn't just about academics, here at college we offer a rich campus life:

Your learning taking place in a state-of-the-art campus in the city centre

Your study space in our brand-new A level Community Hub in the new centre

Your opportunity to join clubs, societies and similar activities. For example, the chance of being a member of the existing team that creates a college newspaper

Your support given by teams of professionals here to assist you on your learning journey, with study and pastoral services available to you.

Your teaching from staff who keep up to date with subject specific CPD and have many years experience teaching on A levels

Your opportunity to experience trips, visits, guest speakers from universities and real life work experience with large employers

Your supportive "stepping stone" from school life to the increased independence of university life 

about our a level offer

We can help you study the subjects that interest you and the combination that best suits your plans for your future career.

You’ll be able to work and complete research in wvSixth – our very own sixth form centre on the Paget Road campus which is solely for use by A Levels students and has computers and places to work individually or in small groups.

In addition to lessons, you’ll have a weekly tutorial with your dedicated personal tutor, as well as studying additional short qualifications in environmental sustainability and financial planning for your future, such as understanding pay and pay slips and understanding your employment contract and rights.

One of our key focuses is preparing you for your future by creating opportunities and experiences for you to gain the skills and knowledge you need to go to university or move straight into a job and, whichever route you take when you leave us, go on to a successful career in your chosen industry.

FAQS

I haven’t got the grades to do A Levels, what are my options?

If you want to do A Levels in science but haven’t got the right grades for the subjects you want to study, the Access to A Levels programme will give you the opportunity to study a range of GCSEs, including English and maths, so that you can progress to A Levels next year.

Can I study A Levels and a Level 3 qualification at the same time?

We know that doing three A Levels might not always be the best combination for your future career, so we offer three Level 3 qualifications that can be studied as part of your study programme. You can opt to combine one A Level with two Level 3 options, or two A Levels with one Level 3 option.

The Level 3 options are:

• Applied Criminology

• Applied Law

• Applied Psychology
