Newcastle College




In 2004, the College received a Grade 1 ("outstanding") Ofsted inspection, placing it among the top three in England and Wales. This was followed in 2005 with the prestigious Learning and Skills Beacon Status award, only nine of which have ever been awarded to an FE college.

The college has firm links with three Universities, Newcastle, Northumbria and leeds metropolitan, and its Sixth Form and other schools work closely with them.
The college has several campusses, with the main one, Ryehill, being on Scotswood Rd, opposite the Metro Radio Arena and a 5 minutes walk through the Life Science Centre to Central Station . Another one is next to the Northumbria University city campus, a short walk from Haymarket interchange. There are several other campusses in neighbouring towns.
