About the students
Neurodivergent young people, aged 16-24 years....
Our primary focus is the wellbeing of our students; we start by getting to know the whole person and their individual needs - there is no typical student at Pinc College.
- We celebrate individuality and self expression – there is no dress code and we encourage our students to be their complete authentic selves.
- Every student has an Individual Learning Plan, tailored to their aspirations, interests and desired outcomes.
- Teaching takes place in small groups, which we know is better for our students.
- Our programmes are project based, which allows our students to choose the topics they are interested in and develop the practical skills they enjoy.
- Our team create positive relationships and a supportive environment for all our students.
Catchment
You will find our campuses in museums, galleries and other cultural spaces across the North West, Midlands, Yorkshire, and Wales...
Our gallery and cultural space campuses give our students opportunities to collaborate with our partners, enjoy workplace experiences and make connections to the local creative and cultural community.
