As we all know, the pandemic set in motion changes across society – the way we work, the way we socialise and the way we learn.
The greater focus on online learning was a necessity during the lockdowns and restrictions and we understand the flexible nature of learning this way – but here at Northern College we champion face-to-face teaching.
We believe, for our students, that in person teaching is the best way to learn and gain qualifications. Face to face learning is an effective way to develop knowledge and skills because it combines different ways of learning including writing, reading, discussion, presentations, projects, group work, film clips, demonstration and practice.
Being based at Wentworth Castle in acres of National Trust grounds and having the residential offer means that you are immersed in the experience even more.
