Lewisham College is a stepping stone to success. Our students go on to leading universities or top jobs, and some even start their own businesses.

Getting into University

Has your son or daughter always dreamed about going to university, but found that school and A levels weren't for them? Lewisham College has the answer.

In fact, there is more than one path to higher education. We offer an exciting and varied programme of qualifications which can help them achieve their goal, and we've got the figures to prove it. Almost half of all entrants to British universities come from further education colleges, and this year our students have gone on to study at some of the top institutions in the country including Rose Bruford, London Contemporary Dance School, The Place, RADA, Goldsmith's, University of Greenwich, Manchester Metropolitan University, London South Bank University, University of Westminster, Liverpool John Moore's University, De Montfort University, University of Hertfordshire, University of Southampton, University College London, Bournemouth University.

Our experienced tutors can offer advice on the options available and will help your child to decide which course is best.

Getting a Job

Coming to Lewisham College means there's no need to worry about your child entering the working world when they've finished their course. We boast an impressive set of links with employers and local business including The Savoy, AXIS Europe, Mulalley and RBS. Our students have also gone on to work for well established and highly successful companies such as the BBC, Gary Rhodes' W1 and Emirates airline. Others have gone on to set up their own businesses.

Many of our courses give students the opportunity to go on a work placement, which not only provides invaluable experience, but also looks great on a CV.

Even if your son or daughter is not sure what career path they would like to take in the future, our team of career advisors can give help lots of relevant help and advice, steering them in the right direction.
