At St John’s College, learning goes beyond the classroom.
Our residential provision gives young people the opportunity to develop independence, confidence and life skills in a supportive environment, while being part of a welcoming college community.
From preparing meals and managing everyday life skills and routines to developing friendships, accessing local community opportunities and enjoying activities together, our residential homes are an important part of helping learners prepare for adulthood and life beyond college.
Take a look inside our residential provision and see what life at St John’s College is all about: https://www.st-johns.co.uk/residential

📍 A small number of residential placements currently available for learners who could benefit from our specialist college and residential provision.

What a wonderful first week it has been as we welcomed our learners back for the new academic year! 🎉

The College has been full of energy, familiar faces and new beginnings as our continuing learners returned and we welcomed new learners joining us through our staggered starts.

From settling into new routines and reconnecting with friends and staff, to getting ready for another year of learning and new opportunities — it has been lovely to see our College community come back to life.

🌟 Well done, Callum! 🌟

Callum recently took part in a Reverse Jobs Fair at the University of Sussex, where interns showcased their skills, experience, CVs and achievements to potential employers.

This was a huge milestone for Callum, who has grown in confidence since joining the Supported Internship programme. He spoke independently with employers, demonstrating excellent communication skills, professionalism and self-confidence.

Reflecting on the day, Callum said:
"I enjoyed talking to people today and I liked the way they didn't rush me."

We're incredibly proud of everything Callum has achieved and can't wait to see what he does next! 👏✨
