BCoT is celebrating success following yesterday’s open event.

Our first open event of the year was a phenomenal success, achieving an exceptionally high turn-out that exceeded all expectations. Yesterday, we welcomed hundreds of prospective students and their families to campus to explore our state-of-the-art facilities, meet lecturers and staff, and learn about the diverse range of courses on offer.

The event provided an engaging and immersive experience, with visitors taking part in interactive demonstrations, touring the vocational facilities, and hearing inspiring talks from current students.

Applications Now Open with Dedicated Parent Support

Following the event's success, applications for 2026 are now officially open.

To provide dedicated guidance and support for families through the admissions process, BCoT is hosting online 'How to Apply - Advice for Parents/Carers' sessions. These will run on Wednesday, October 15th and Wednesday, November 26th, from 6pm to 6:30pm.

The sessions offer parents and carers a chance to speak directly with the admissions team, receive step-by-step guidance on completing the application, and get answers to any questions regarding funding, curriculum, or student life.

Prospective students who missed the main event still have an opportunity to visit the campus at our next open morning on Saturday, November 22nd from 10am to 12:30pm.
