I.D Cards:

During enrolment, each student will be given an induction ID which will act as a travel pass.

This pass will last until November. Following this, students will be given a sticker to apply to the card with ‘term 1’. In January the following year, learners will also be provided with a further ‘term 2’ sticker.

Other Information

Losing your card:

It’s important for students to have their ID on them at all times, however, should learners misplace the card, we offer a replacement service. We ask our students to act sensibly on their travels. Anyone involved in causing disruption or concern on the above transport routes may have their card confiscated.

Card replacement Cost

2nd replacement £5
3rd replacement £10

If you want to travel and get fit, the College is on a number of the major cycle routes, and we provide secure cycle parking facilities. If you want to travel by car or motor-cycle, you can apply for a parking permit to allow you to use the College car parks.
