We’re sorry you missed our Open Day!
As you are watching this on-demand, the links to the Zoom Live Chat Sessions will no longer work. However, you can still find out about our fantastic range of courses and take a 360 tour of our Sixth Form campus. If you have any questions, please contact our Information Unit by emailing info@barnsley.ac.uk or calling 01226 216 123.
Our next Open Day will be on Thursday 2 December. We hope this will be a face-to-face Open Day but will be led by government guidelines at the time of the event. Please check our Open Days 2021/22 page for more information.
Please disregard the Zoom sessions below as the event has finished.
We have set up our chat sessions using Zoom. If you have not used Zoom before have a look at our Need help using Zoom page.

What are my options after Year 11?

Although your studies are important we want you to get as much out of Sixth Form College as you can. We have lots of things going on that you can get involved in. Find out about some of our enrichment activities and how they can benefit you in more ways than you think. Also, all Barnsley Sixth Form College students have access to the services available at Barnsley College, including Enterprise, the Job Shop, Careers Coach and Barnsley Sports Academy.
Your health and wellbeing is really important to us as we believe it’s essential for you to achieve your goals and we pride ourselves on making sure that all our students receive the support and care they need whilst they are at College.
We have lots of support on offer from helping you with your finances to looking after your physical and mental health. Here are just a few of the ways we can help:
We have a dedicated Health and Wellbeing Centre and dedicated Wellbeing Spaces based in the Old Mill Lane campus of Barnsley College that all our students have access to.
You can take a well-earned break from your studies to recharge your batteries in our dedicated mindfulness zone, GAINSpace.
GAINSpace is a student-led initiative with a planned programme of activities such as stress busting at exam time, chill and chat sessions, meditation, guitar playing, reading for pleasure, colouring and art activities.
Politics is based in the Barnsley Sixth Form campus. As a student with us, you can access all of the state-of-the-art facilities and campuses available at Barnsley College too; visit our Campus page to explore them all.
