A specialist sixth form college is hosting an open event in York

An exclusive boarding sixth form college is hosting an open event in York.

Situated on 93 acres of serene Worcestershire countryside, Westerfield College has established itself as a focused and forward-thinking sixth-form college grounded in heritage and driven by ambition.

Families and prospective students will have the opportunity to learn more through the upcoming Westerfield Comes To You event – an opportunity to meet representatives, explore academic pathways and understand how the College supports university progression from start to finish.

The event will take place at the Milner York, on Sunday 8 March.

Westerfield campus

Talks will take place between 10am to 2pm, but attendees are encouraged to drop in anytime between 10am to 4pm.

Those interested in attending the event or applying for one of Westerfield College UK’s A-Level or Foundation programmes are encouraged to register in advance to secure their place and there will be scholarship opportunities available on both merit and time of application basis, so you are encouraged to apply early.

Westerfield operates exclusively as a specialist sixth-form college, concentrating on A-Levels, Pre-medicine and its University Foundation Programme; ensuring every aspect of its teaching and pastoral support is directed towards university progression and long-term success.

What is more, its size-cap of 150 students reflects its ambition to personally know, cater to and support its average 50 students per course, which in itself offers all the trappings of individualised teaching in very small class sizes and tailor-made support for each student.

Students at Westerfield can choose from a broad range of A-Level subjects, spanning sciences, humanities, business, and creative disciplines. This breadth allows pupils to construct subject combinations that align directly with their intended degree pathways.

For those seeking an alternative route into higher education, the College’s University Foundation Programme offers ten distinct academic pathways. Each pathway is structured around future university study, giving students a clear academic direction rather than a generic transition year.

The College also offers the Pre-medical Foundation, an intensive year and half long course of academic delivery, hands-on internship and camps.

Westerfield is complemented by a strong co-curricular offering. Students have access to sports including football, basketball, athletics, cricket, tennis, and squash, developing teamwork and discipline alongside physical wellbeing.

In addition to sport, co-curricular opportunities include debating, leadership for self and nation, creative, service and enterprise. The College offers a broad array of extra-curricular opportunities including gardening, modern languages – French and Chinese, Arts club, Squash club, Christian union, theatre and dance clique, Music herd, Fit league, Green community – gardening angels.
