School Liaison

Milton Keynes College is committed to working in partnership with local schools to ensure students can explore all the opportunities open to them.

We offer a wide range of services enabling schools to provide informed progression routes and options available to their young people regarding future destinations and careers.

Information and advice coupled with inspirational resources will equip students with the confidence to make the best decisions about their future.

If you would like more information about how your students can benefit from any of the activities and events we offer, or you would like to discuss a session tailored to suit your school, academy or sixth form, please get in touch.

We also offer networking and CPD opportunities for anyone with IAG responsibilities. Please contact me if you would like to be added to our mailing list to receive details of these events as well as general MK College and careers updates.
