Developing the Young Workforce SCHOOL-COLLEGE COURSES School-college information evenings were held at our Ayr, Kilmarnock and Kilwinning campuses in January 2018. Pupils, parents, teaching staff and career advisors were invited to find out more information about the courses available. School-college courses are open to senior phase pupils, enabling them to study at college while still at school. Pupils will be able to gain additional skills and experience to prepare them for future studies and career.
