Greetings North West College Families
We are thrilled with the incredible progress of North West College in its first year.
First of all, Ken and I would like to thank everyone who was able to attend our recent Information Evening on 16 October. We had an outstanding turnout of 120 participants.
Ken Pemberton, Co-Founder and School Business Manager, shared details about our new venues at 195–199 Universal Drive, which will open in 2026 and 2027.
Ms Suzanne Oliver, our Deputy Principal, outlined the reasons for selecting the Cambridge International Education Programme, along with the subject choices and timetables for Years 7–8 and 9–10 in 2026.
Our Principal, Mrs Michelle Randles, has shared recent subject results with Ken and I, and we are delighted to see the impressive progress being made by individual students and entire class groups across their academic subjects. It is a real pleasure to witness our students’ engagement and enthusiasm for learning each day.
We have arranged a meeting for all pre-enrolled parents and students in the 2026 cohort for Years 7 and 8. This will provide more specific information about the 2026 programme and offer an opportunity to meet our Senior Leadership Team, teaching staff, and connect with other new families joining our school community. This meeting will be taking place on Tuesday, 25 November, from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. A formal invitation will be sent to families within these groups so we can confirm attendance numbers prior to the event.
Update 25/11/2025:
Unfortunately, due to illness, we have had to cancel this evening’s Year 7 and Year 8 Information Event, mentioned back in October, on our website.
We will be sending out details about the upcoming orientation sessions, along with other key information, over the next week.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Our predicted roll for Term 1, 2026, is 140 students, and we are pleased to confirm that we are on track to reach this goal. Applications for the Year 7, 2027 cohort will open in March 2026. If any of our current families have children who will be starting Year 7 in 2027, please let us know before this date so we can ensure priority for current families.
As always, thank you for your continued support of North West College.
Kind Regards
Sherida Penman Walters and Ken Pemberton.
