At Thornbeck College, our study programmes are designed to help our learners develop a range of skills needed for everyday life and work. Throughout the year our learners participate in a wide variety of activities - both on-site and out in the community - that are designed to promote independence, and develop knowledge and skills, with the goal of enabling our young adults to reach their maximum potential.
