Progress Leader Team

Across all five sites we have a Student Hub which houses Progress Leaders, Work Experience officers, Careers Advice and Guidance and the Welfare and Wellbeing team.

This is a central space for all students to come and request support and discuss opportunities within their student journey. All our students will be allocated a progress leader within their study programme who will support and challenge them during their time in college, to ensure all students develop into their true potential whilst with us. Make sure you come and find us within your first week so we can introduce ourselves and tell you how we can support you further.

Student support and wellbeing services

As a City of Liverpool College student, you have access to a wide range of welfare and wellbeing services. Our Welfare and Wellbeing Team is here to support every student during your time with us. You can find out more about the support and services we offer by clicking here.

You can also access the Wellbeing Hub on our website, which provides full details of how we can help you.

Study Programmes

As well as your main subject, if you’re  a college learner aged 16-18, you are also enrolled on a Study Programme.

Study programmes consist of various elements to support your personal and professional development, such as group and 1-to-1 tutorials, work experience, Maths and English (if you haven’t already passed). This helps to prepare you for the world of work and offers you much more than just a qualification.

In order to gain your overall qualification, you must attend and pass all elements of your study programme.

Your First Week / Transition Week

What is Transition Week?  

Transition Week is when all students are welcomed to the College. It ensures you feel safe and comfortable in the environment so you can make the most out of your time here. Transition Week takes place during your first week of college. All students will be invited to attend Transition Week activities from 9th September to 13th September.

This week will give you an opportunity to get familiar with your course and college life. You will meet all your tutors and support staff and receive all the information you need to be successful this year.

What will Transition Week involve?  

All students are expected in college during this week to take part in welcome activities. Just turn up on the day of your first timetabled session and we’ll take it from there.

Activities during this week will include:

  • Getting to know who else is on your course
  • Tour of your college campus site
  • Introduction to your subject tutors, information about your study programme and expectations
  • Completion of any initial assessments you might need to take for maths, English, etc
  • Introduction to your Personal Development Sessions
  • Review of any support you might need outside of your course
  • Introduction to the College’s digital systems and completion of a digital survey
  • Uniform/PPE/kit allocation (if required)
