Public Services are provided by government to the people it serves. We will help you to develop the skills you will need, such as a knowledge of human behaviour and social issues alongside skills such as leadership, teamwork, and communication.

In addition to studying at college, we have industry links to provide hands-on work experience with employers such as Metropolitan Police, Old Bailey, London Ambulance Service, the London Fire Brigade and RAF Hendon.
