Your College
Choosing where to study after school is a big step and Waltham Forest College is an aspirational college where your future begins. We are here to help you make a confident and ambitious choice. As one of only a few colleges in the country rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, we are committed to helping young people gain the skills, knowledge and behaviours to thrive in a fast-changing world.
This is a college where you’ll be inspired to aim high, whether that’s progressing to university, securing a top apprenticeship, or stepping straight into your chosen career.
Want to earn while you learn? Apprenticeships allow you to work with an employer four days a week and study at college one day a week. A great choice if you already know the career path you want to follow.
Our students have achieved great success over the years. From earning top grades in their GCSEs through to succeeding in their ambition to start a new career, we celebrate everything they have achieved and go on to achieve. Explore some of the student examples below and be inspired to start your own journey back into education.
We offer personalised programmes for young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities. You’ll build life skills, boost confidence and prepare for independent living, work or further learning, all in a supportive environment.
These hands-on courses are perfect if you prefer practical learning over exams. You’ll study real-world subjects like business, media, construction or health and social care, gaining skills employers are looking for.
