Barnsley is amongst the first areas in the country to have the choice to take up the Government’s new flagship qualification – The Diploma. Whether you’ve got a career in mind, hope to go to university or just want to see what’s out there, the Diploma is the perfect way to explore your options. It’s a new qualification for 14 - 19 year olds and offers a mix of classroom learning and hands-on experience - all designed to prepare you for wherever you want to go in life.
