Features

Home Pick-Ups and Drop-Offs

We recognise that getting to and from college can be a barrier for some young people. We feel it is important that we offer our home pick-up and drop-off service to address this need. This crucial support is offered by our youth workers and tutors, to minimise travel anxiety.

Enrichment Activities

At Really NEET we place huge value on our enrichment activities to improve learner experience and self-confidence. Activities can include quad-biking, rock-climbing, bowling, football and experience days at zoos amongst other things. They are learner led, meaning that our learners decide what activities they undertake.

Residential

Learners will have an opportunity to take part in a 2-day residential at the end of the year. This is a night away from home to experience team-building activities and challenges that help to build confidence and resilience. Some learners opt out of this experience because it can feel overwhelming to be away from home. Whatever the decision, there is complete understanding, but the opportunity is offered to everyone to allow learners the option.

Lunches

Daily lunches are ordered locally, with both hot and cold options available. There is always access to toast, cereal, fruit and other refreshments throughout the day.

What our learners say

I have been at Really Neet for 3 months and have enjoyed being here. I enjoy the relaxed environment and it is very different to other colleges.

Ahmed

Really Neet is flexible and works around your needs. I have been here for nearly 3 years and it has been stress free. The staff are good and I enjoy the structure of the lessons, the activities and the flexibility, Really Neet is different to school because there is support in all areas and individual needs. It makes education accessible to everyone unlike mainstream. There are options around different subjects and interests.

Learning at Really Neet will open more opportunities and guide me step by step towards a job.

Pinar

Really Neet is a calm and accepting environment. The staff and students are kind and coming into college helps me relax and get my mind off things.

I enjoy the pool table, helpful books and art supplies that are available.

The staff are much kinder and patient. This is a massive difference to my experience in school.
