High School Liaison
About Us
Established for over 10 years Bury College’s High School Liaison Team works with approximately 3500 year 9, 10 and 11 students annually.
We are closely associated with 15 high schools in Bury and over 45 high schools in Rochdale, Bolton, Manchester and Lancashire. Each school has an allocated Bury College Link Person, whose role is to act as the primary contact point for the school. This person will inform both staff and pupils on the broad curriculum offer available and be responsible for developing an ongoing relationship with the staff.
Bury College link staff take an active role in a variety of school related activities, including presentations to year groups, drop-in sessions, parents' evenings and careers events. They are available for support and guidance and here to help ease the transition process from High School to Bury College.
