ICT Academy
We are currently in partnership with the University of Plymouth to create a Key Stage 5 ICT Academy here at Treviglas. In addition to the current AS and A2 level courses that we offer, we will provide six modules that the University of Plymouth will acredit with UCAS tariff points, with the view to direct progression on a Computing course with them. This is a very exciting concept and we will be providing further information as it develops over the coming academic year. For further information please contact us and you are very welcome to our sixth form information evening to discuss options.
