Starting your qualifications at school
Did you know you can study a college course as part of your timetable while you are still at school ?
All of our courses are designed to help you develop skills needed for both Higher Education and employment , and allow you to be an independent , selfmotivated and creative critical thinker .
School College Partnership
You don ’ t have to wait until you finish school to start thinking about what you want to do afterwards . You can start your pathway to a degree at school through Higher National Certificate ( HNC ) courses which are offered through our School College Partnership and are the equivalent of year 1 of a university degree .
In many cases , it means you can study on campus where you ’ ll experience college life , learn new skills in our stateof-the-art facilities , and study a range of Higher National subjects such as Accounting , Applied Science and Business .
All our courses are chosen to allow you to move on to a degree course either at Fife College or with one of our university partners so you get the skills you really need for your future career .

In place of Higher qualifications , you could progress on to an HNC qualification with Fife College , from a Foundation Apprenticeship in the same subject area .
