More Than Just a College: Discover Our 16–18 Study Programme
What makes the ACE Study Programme different? We believe it’s the understanding that every young person’s path to success looks a little different. For some, a massive mainstream college can feel overwhelming. At ACE, we offer a smaller, more personal environment where students aren’t just a number – they are part of a community.
We’ve created this new film to give you a real sense of what life is like at our centres in Rackheath and Great Yarmouth, and to hear from some 2025/6 students about their own experience of being at ACE. It’s a look at how we combine vocational qualifications in areas like Construction, Motor Vehicle, and Hair & Beauty with the essential functional skills and emotional support needed to take that next big step.

As you’ll see in the video, our programmes are designed to help young people (aged 16–18, or up to 24 with an EHCP) build a foundation for the future:
- Hands-on Learning: Real-world vocational training in industry-style settings.
- Individual Support: Small group sizes that allow our staff to focus on your specific strengths and needs.
- Essential Skills: Dedicated time for English, Maths, and employability training to ensure you’re “work-ready.”
- A Fresh Start: A nurturing approach for those who may have had a difficult experience with education in the past.
We hope this film gives you a better sense of the energy and dedication our students bring to ACE every day. Whether you are a young person looking for your next step, or a parent or carer seeking the right fit, we’d love to welcome you for a visit. You can book a tour of either campus HERE.
