New College Worcester (NMSS)

At NCW it is our aim to ensure there are no barriers to success for any child with a vision impairment. The combination of tailored learning, extra-curricular experiences and the immense support offered by staff and peers means that every child has the opportunity to achieve their very best potential. Thank you for making school such an amazing place.

I was shocked when [daughter] said she wanted to return - it's the polar opposite of her experience at primary! The College accepts students with a wide range of vision impairments and some students have additional needs such as a hearing impairment, autism or have limited mobility. Places are usually funded by the student's Local Authority.

NCW Students have a wide range of academic ability following the National Curriculum at Key Stage 3, following onto GCSEs and AS/A2 courses. The College offers some entry level and vocational courses in key stage 4 and 5 and some 6th formers follow vocational programmes at a local college supported by NCW staff.

Students also have Independent Living Skills (ILS), Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Mobility, Braille and PE lessons, and some students follow ASDAN courses (personal, social and communication skills).
