WHY CHOOSE THIS COURSE

Shipley College is launching an exciting new construction course designed to help young people build practical skills, gain confidence, and take their next steps toward further training or employment.

It reflects the college's commitment to supporting every learner by recognising different learning styles and using varied teaching methods to draw out individual strengths.
Available as part-time study programmes for 16–18 year-olds, the course is ideal for students who thrive in practical environments outside a traditional classroom. Small group sizes ensure personalised support and encouragement as students build technical skills alongside personal confidence.
