College/ Foundation Apprenticeship Update

Due to COVID-19 there have been some changes made to the Tuesday and Thursday afternoon college offering as well as Foundation Apprenticeships.
If you have any questions about these changes, or want more information about college or Foundation Apprenticeships please contact Mr Richardson on gw12richardsonjack@glow.sch.uk
There are slight differences between college and Foundation Apprenticeships, for this reason they have been separated into two sections for this update.
