A partner student is guaranteed a place at the college
It’s a bit like having a chair here at Runshaw with your name on it, and where that chair goes is firmed up on results day. Navigate to your area below, including our Partner High School map and bus service information.
We are an oversubscribed college and we have more applicants than we have places. To help control this we prioritise students at our Partner Schools. If you attend a Partner School you will be offered a place with us.
We advise all year 11 school leavers to apply for at least 3 colleges, this way you have choices, and you do not need to make up your mind until results day in August. As a partner high school student this means that even if you are not sure which college you want to attend, it is always worth submitting an application as plan A, B or indeed C.
Our Application Deadline is April 1st 2025
You can apply today by clicking the green ‘apply now’ button at the bottom of this page.
