As a general FE College, most of our course places are funded by Government subsidy. In the case of 16-18 learners, there is a Government ‘Guarantee’ to ensure that all people in this age group have the opportunity to continue their education and training and we work closely with Connexions in this regard. If you are aged 16-18 (at 31st Aug 2010) please contact us to explore your options.

For adult learners (aged 19 plus) the College receives funding from the Skills Funding Agency or in the case of HE learners, the Higher Education Funding Agency, to provide a limited number of places to continue with further or higher education. At Wirral Metropolitan College we have a course admissions process that considers applicants through a process of assessment, interview and any specific requirements identified to study the particular qualification.
