Why is it called "First College" when it's a high school or secondary school?
We train a strongly collegiate style of studying so that the student learns to take responsibility for their own work and deadlines. It means the transfer to later qualifications, University, or (self) employment is much easier as a result.

First College UK is very much a family business.
We created it to educate our own son, who is now
a trainee online teacher in the school! (under strict supervision)

CRB checks (Standard Level) on all teachers;
DP registration (Notification reference: jvl530);
Please do ask for any of this to be explained.
