School and College Liaison

The Colchester Institute schools liaison team are dedicated to providing a thorough and comprehensive service.

We understand that, due to COVID-19, you may not be able to welcome us to your school in the usual way. As a result, we’ve produced a range of new digital resources to help with your post-16 guidance. See below in the Schools Liaison Toolkit section.

We are ever evolving to meet the demands of our schools in a COVID-19 world, one thing remains constant, our determination to offer you the continuing support you need in whatever format that maybe.

As always, please do not hesitate to contact us directly if you would like further information or have a suggestion for a way in which we can help. We shall be delighted to help and look forward to working together with you this year.
