Future Pathway 14-16

Our 14–16 Vocational Provision gives students the opportunity to study a specialist land-based subject at Myerscough College while remaining enrolled at their school.

This two-year programme begins at the start of Year 10 and is delivered at our Preston Campus. It is designed to complement students’ school studies while introducing them to practical, career-focused learning and preparing them for further education after Year 11.

What Students Will Gain

Students benefit from:

  • Hands-on practical experience  
  • Increased confidence, independence, and motivation for learning
  • Insight into future study options within land-based and technical subject areas

Students continue to study their core GCSE subjects in school alongside the vocational pathway.

Vocational Pathways Available

We currently offer the following specialist pathways:

  • Motor Sport
  • Agriculture
  • Animal Studies
  • Equine

Each pathway provides an engaging introduction to the sector, combining practical activities with essential underpinning knowledge.

Progression After Year 11
