The school's facilities have been recently upgraded and contain the space, equipment and machinery necessary for proper training in the various fields offered. Our students are made up of people of many ages, with diverse educational backgrounds and work experience, all committed to their new endeavor. The goal of training at North Bennet Street School is craftsmanship. This is the hallmark of the work of those who excel in the trades and crafts taught at this school. The school remains committed to the best part of the apprenticeship system of learning.
Practical projects are the main substance of students' training.
Beginning with the first assignment and continuing through the course, a student takes on increasingly difficult work. This method develops not only hand skills but also an understanding of procedures used in the trade. Admissions North Bennet Street School seeks students who have the desire to achieve success in one of its trades and who demonstrate the probability of actually achieving this goal. Individuals who do not have a high school diploma or GED, will be considered for admission based upon the applicant's ability to benefit from the training offered. Ability to benefit must be confirmed by documentation of an acceptable test score on an approved standardized test given by a qualified, independent third party.
