warm and personal welcome to South Birmingham College -

a college that looks after its students.

I know that when you are considering which college and which course to choose you are making one of the most difficult but most important decisions of your life, as your future career and your quality of life will be affected by your choice. Most of us are in this position at times in our life whether as a new student just starting out or as an employee improving our skills and qualifications and I know from personal experience how difficult it is to make the right choice and to work out what will be best for your future.

At South Birmingham College we want to give you the best any college can offer and to help you in every way possible. From advice on courses, through to excellent teaching and learning provided and supported by experienced and committed staff and use of the best resources and facilities of any college - and of course an

enjoyable time and the chance to make new friends. There are many social activities for students throughout the year, and the college prides itself on being a safe place to study and we do not tolerate any form of racism,

discrimination or bullying.

I and my staff are here for you, to help you succeed and to ensure that you enjoy your time with the college.

You will probably know already of the college’s reputation and success. Over 81% of all students who enrolled at the college last year gained their chosen qualifications (and many courses have a far higher success rate), and with the highest overall success rate of any college in the city last year and one of the highest OFSTED inspection ratings you can be assured that you’ll be in good hands. With four prestigious campuses, each with their own specialisms, the College boasts some of the newest and best educational facilities in the Midlands.

Our new Digbeth centre close to the city centre has a wide range of courses and state of the art facilities and equipment for Music, Media, Multimedia, ESOL (English Language), Basic Skills, Textiles, ICT, Business and Professional Studies, Trade Union Studies.

The new Built Environment/Construction Centre in Bordesley Green is one of the biggest and best construction training centres in the country offering most construction related courses and training, and in addition provides sports courses and training alongside the brand new state of the art Astroturf pitch.

The Hall Green Centre offers Health and Care (it’s a designated centre of vocational excellence in Childcare and Early Years), Catering, Hair and Beauty, ESOL, Basic Skills.

Last but not least is the new Women’s Academy in Balsall Heath. This newly refurbished centre offers a secure environment for female students to study a range of vocational courses.

Of course by far the greatest recommendation for you will be the views and experience of previous and current students, so if you’d like to talk to people who’ve been through courses already please give us a ring and we’ll arrange it.

South Birmingham is more than just a college. It’s the way to a better

future for you.
