About this Event

Join us at Warwick Trident College for our bespoke Open Evening for WCG Drive – our exciting new specialist 14-16 provision launching in September 2026.

Designed specifically for Year 10 students (aged 14), WCG Drive offers an alternative, supportive pathway that combines essential GCSEs (English Language, Maths, Double Science, plus an optional subject) with hands-on vocational training in Engineering or Motor Vehicle. Students benefit from small-group teaching, wellbeing and learning support, a calm and nurturing environment, and strong industry links (including Jaguar Land Rover).

This is a fantastic opportunity to:

  • Tour our modern facilities and specialist workshops
  • Speak with tutors, support staff, and the WCG Drive team
  • Learn about the curriculum, transport options, and enrolment process (including interviews and personalised assessments)
  • See how WCG Drive can support young people who thrive in a more practical, vocational-focused setting

Only prospective students need to book a ticket (guests welcome). Ideal for families considering options beyond traditional GCSE routes.

We look forward to welcoming you and answering your questions!
