Based across two campus sites in Altrincham and Stretford, Trafford College offers academic education, adult education, apprenticeships, community learning, higher education, and vocational/technical education.
Our main campus site is conveniently located on the A6, Wellington Road, and offers both Further and Higher Education from a £23m revamped campus which is close to the town centre and offers a range of industry standard services and facilities.
Based on Buxton Lane, close to the centre of Marple Village, our successful Sixth Form offers A Levels and Technical qualifications. For most of our students their goal is progression to university, and many have gone on to study at Oxford, Cambridge, or Russell Group institutions.
Choose from academic and technical study programmes including the new T Levels to suit your preferred learning and benefit from a wide range of student experience activities that will help unlock your potential.
Whether you’re looking for part or full-time courses to help you learn for fun or to acquire new skills to help you get into or on in work, our range of courses often also come with funding and financial support to help get you started.
Benefit from dedicated tutor support and small class sizes which offer a range of qualifications from HNCs and HNDs through to Foundation and Undergraduate degrees.
Whether you’re a young person looking to start their working career or an adult looking to advance your career, we work with hundreds of employers across the Northwest who are looking for apprentices to help improve their productivity and your career prospects.
We don’t just work with employers; we create transformational partnerships to provide skills development and opportunities to help both our employers and students unlock individual and organisational potential and success.
Our values are shared by our students and staff to help us all become better people that our families, friends and communities are proud of.
