Diplomas will suit young people of all abilities and aspirations who are looking for a qualification based around work rather than traditional subjects and who prefer a greater element of continuous assessment in their course.
Diplomas bring learning to life, they are for young people 14-19 who enjoy a blend of theory and practical learning set in a real life context. The East Riding of Yorkshire Diplomas will enable learners to bring their skills, talents and interests into their learning experience.
Diplomas will suit learners who enjoy working with a wide range of employers, trainers and other teaching professionals and some diplomas will involve travelling to other schools and colleges.
Because of the breadth of learning and skills development they offer, diplomas will suit young people who have already decided on a career path as well as those who have still not made up their minds.
