Welcome to Sirius Academy West
Over the past five years the College @ Sirius – the in house Post-16 provision for the Constellation Trust – has transformed, from a small entity primarily offering vocational courses and Level 2 provision, to an academic powerhouse. With our small class-sizes, bespoke, offer and the focus on individual excellence we are now proud to be recognised as one of the best Post-16 providers in the region.Whilst we are extremely proud to be part of the Constellation Trust, and located within Sirius Academy West, we are far from a school. A significant part of our responsibility is to make sure our students enjoy a period of maturation, they prepare themselves for the adult life they are about to enter. We encourage independence, a focus on next-steps and the notion that all students can, and therefore should, expect the best outcomes themselves and each other.So if you want to attend a college where you are treated as an individual and supported academically and emotionally during your studies. A college where your views are welcomed and listened to. A college where staff and students work together to equip you with the skills needed for Higher Education and the world of work. A college where you are given the opportunity to develop entrepreneurial and leadership skills.We believe The College @ Sirius is the place for you.
