Bradford College has added bonus enrolment dates to its calendar in response to what it describes as "exceptionally high demand for places this year."

The main enrolment period was in August and September, but the college has added more dates for students to enrol.

A new set of courses will start in November, covering a wide range of subjects.

These are described as "ideal" for 16-year-olds who have not been in education since the start of the current academic year.

November starts may be of particular interest to anyone in receipt of Child Benefit payments, said a spokesperson for the college.

Once a 16-year-old has finished school, confirmation of post-16 learning – such as college enrolment – is an eligibility condition to continue receiving this form of benefit.

Jess Leech of Bradford College said: "If the right steps aren’t taken, some families don’t realise that they could lose a substantial amount of support once a child has left full-time education."

Enrolment for November takes place from 9.30am to 4pm each day from today (Wednesday, November 20) through to Friday, November 22, at Bradford College’s ATC Building.

Photographic ID is required to enrol.
