School profile

New College Doncaster

We are an academic and inclusive sixth form college serving students from across Doncaster and Retford.

New College is about achieving outstanding results and moving on to great universities, apprenticeships and jobs. But it’s also about supporting our students to be ready for adult life. Engagement with employers and universities, or through work experience, supports our students in developing ambitious, well-informed plans for the future. Going beyond the basics of course content in lessons, through trips, enrichment, competitions and speakers, helps to bring subjects to life, and to develop passion and flair. Our teachers work hard to develop study skills and independent learning, so our students are ready for university and employment. Opportunities to get involved in our extensive extra-curricular programme, with over 80 programmes to choose from, helps our students to develop confidence, new skills, wider cultural experiences, and to build new friendships.
