McDonalds, Leisure Centres, Cinemas, restaurants, Garages, Driving Schools and Clothes and Record Shops are typical of the range of businesses who have joined the discount list. Each year the Student Council is committed to providing a service which will benefit all its members regardless of age and mode of attendance. Students may be adding to an existing one or taking the opportunity to start building up a new one. The record summarises achievements and experiences of the person to whom it belongs and enables the owner to take pride in past accomplishments and to plan for future education and training throughout life. Employers of substantial part-time students receive reports in December and June.
Faculties organise parents evenings following the circulation of reports.
All students undergo an Induction Programme which varies in time and content according to individual needs. A flexible approach has been built into the process to allow for individual planning, and identification of any additional needs. Action planning commences at Induction and continues throughout the year at key stages. All students receive a copy of the College Charter and handbook 'NLC Fax' at the start of their course. These are available for individual appointments as well as group work sessions.
