PROFESSIONAL POLICING 🚨
Our uniformed public services students had the pleasure of welcoming @universityofhull professional policing students to the college for a speed questioning session last week. Wilberforce students prepared 26 questions to ask each of the guest speakers, which allowed them to gain 3 different prospectives of the course and also how to prepare for university life!
All new police recruits must be qualified to degree level so this route is an ideal course for our students to take. Working closely with @thehumbersidepolice , they will also gain the opportunity to train on their Special Constable programme whilst completing their course.

A word from our Principal, Colin
Welcome to Wilberforce Sixth Form College. I hope you find the information you are looking for and that it gives you a flavour of everything we have to offer.
Wilberforce College has been a prominent establishment in the Hull community since 1988. We have grown year on year and currently serve around 1,350 students from East Hull, West Hull and the East Riding villages.
We offer all the specialisms of a sixth form college, delivering exclusively to 16-19 years olds, but have a broad curriculum that includes A Level, T Level, BTEC and City & Guilds qualifications. Our Level 3 Advanced qualifications are particularly successful and we continuously see our students progress to some of the best universities and careers.
The College’s support services are outstanding and complement students’ learning to ensure that they have the best chance of success and their experience with us extends beyond the classroom.
