Penwith College holds both entertainment and alcohol licences and we can also provide catering for your event. For rates, availability and any further information please call 01736 335000.

The new buildings take advantage of the wonderful position of the College, both in terms of proximity to the town centre, transport links and the fabulous views that the College enjoys over Mounts Bay.

The centre of the campus is an amphitheatre providing space for students to relax in as well as an outdoor performance area of theatre and music events produced by College students and visiting arts groups.

The large Gwenvor building bordering much of the amphitheatre houses Automotive Engineering facilities including workshops for fabrication, welding and paintwork. The centre of Gwenvor has a large open space able to accommodate a two storey house for the new construction trade courses available at Penwith.

The refurbished Old Grammar School retains much of its originalcharacter whilst housing state of the art facilities for Art and Design, Photography and Ceramics, in what is now the Nanjizal building.

Martin Tucker Director of Operations at Penwith College

The redevelopment at Penwith has brought with it huge opportunity for the development of new courses as well as enhanced facilities for existing courses. All round, everyone benefits - the students, the staff and the community.

PENWITH COLLEGE. NEW, WORLD CLASS FACILITIES FOR THE WHOLE COMMUNITY

I am delighted our students can now use these buildings and the amazing facilities on offer.

24+ Advanced Learning LoanAre you aged 24 or over and thinking about Further Education?

You may be eligible for an advanced learning loan which you only pay back when you’re earning over £21,000. The loan is not means tested and there are no fees to pay up front.

The Government has introduced this scheme to enable those aged 24 or over to apply for a loan to cover course fees. If you’re planning to study at Level 3 and above, you may qualify for a 24+ Advanced Learning Loan.

If you complete an Access to HE Course and progress to an HE degree and complete the full qualification you will have the 24+ Advanced Learning Loan written off.

For those aged 16 to 23 we may be able to support you in other ways. For further information about loans contact 01736 335149.

Initial Materials FeeWhere possible the initial materials fee has been shown. These are payable even if you receive free tuition. ALL students will be required to provide their own books and materials.

RefundsA full refund will only be made if a class does not start or closes after one session. After a course has started, pro-rata refunds can only be made if you are ill (medical certificate required) and all refund requests must be made in writing to the Principal.

Exams InformationFor the majority of qualification courses, any fees payable to the Awarding Body for registration, examination entry and certification, will be collected together with the course fee payable before the start of the course. Where this is not the case, the additional payment due will be stated in the course description in the part-time courses brochure. If you are enrolled on a qualification course, then provided all fees have been paid you will automatically be registered with the awarding body and entered for any examinations as appropriate.

If you need to re-take any examinations in which you are unsuccessful, you will need to enter for these separately and make a re-entry payment to the examinations office. You will receive written advance notification of the arrangements for formal examinations and written confirmation of your results. Certificates will be posted recorded delivery to the address as given on your enrolment form, so please do ensure that any change in your contact details is notified to the part-time courses team. Any questions about registration, examinations or certification should be directed to the Exams Office 01872 267106 for Truro based students or 01736 335127 for Penwith based students.

medical reasons or because of learning difficulties, please contact the Exams Officer, Jennifer Hoare, as early on in your course as possible: 01872 267105 jenniferh@truro-penwith.ac.uk
