Open Days, Open Fridays, Tasters and Visits

The best way to see any school is by visiting it.  At Scarborough College, there are several ways to visit and find out what we are all about.  In addition to our Whole School Open Day in the Autumn Term, we host Open Fridays throughout the Academic Year and our doors are always open to families who would like to visit us.

Visiting an Open Day is perfect if you are looking to enroll your son or daughter, and they are great opportunities to bring other members of the families too.  It’s more of a festive event and you will find that many departments organise special activities and treats.  Although the Head will speak to everyone attending, you might find it is difficult to speak for a longer period of time.  If you are interested in meeting with the Head, then it might be worthwhile considering an Open Friday or Visit.

Friday’s For You are special Fridays throughout the Academic Year where families can visit and see the school in action.  Departments won’t organise anything special and Scarborough College will run the way it normally runs.  Fridays For You also provide a good opportunity to speak to various members of staff, join in your favourite lesson as a family, visit the boarding houses and perhaps even start the weekend early and in style.

Visits are more tailored to an individual future pupil and they can be organised throughout the year and on most days to suit you.

Tasters are great for those families who would like to get a real sense of Scarborough College.  Your child is dropped off in their own school uniform and they get assigned a buddy for the day.  Together, they will go to lessons, have lunch, play sports and get a definite taste of life at the College.  Where possible and applicable, we can organise tasters stays in the boarding houses too.

If you would like any further information about booking a visit or a Friday’s For You Open Afternoon, please contact our Admissions Team on 01723 360620 or email registrar@scarboroughcollege.co.uk.
