Residential Opportunities Learning l Living l Working
If you are thinking of studying at QAC, you may wish to consider joining us
as a residential student? Some of us live quite far away from Birmingham
and so it is vital that we live at College anyway. Other students may feel that
they would like to be residential as they will be able to develop their
independent living and social skills.
Residential learners are supported towards their key individual targets by
experienced residential teams which include sleep-in and waking night staff.
There are various activities that take place during evenings and weekends,
including quiz nights, bingo, sport clubs and movie nights to name but a
few. We also visit Theme Parks, go shopping, visit local cinemas as well as
going on weekend trips away.
If you think that Residential provision might be right for you then you can
speak to us about this in more detail when you are making your application.

Hi, my name is Becky.
I am studying BTEC National Level 3 ICT and this is my third year at QAC.
I have progressed a lot since I started at QAC - especially with regards to
my independent living skills. I am really working hard on my cookery skills
at the moment as I now feel happy with other things like ironing and laundry.
Although I am from Birmingham, I stay at QAC as a residential student.Name

I am part of the QAC ‘Glee’ Club which I love! We have performed in front
of the staff and students at College as well as to members of the local
community.

Hello, my name is Sam and I have been at QAC for four years.
What I love about QAC is that everyone supports each other. There is a
strong sense of community here and we never have any problems with
bullying or anything like that.
I love music and particularly enjoy playing the drums as well as the
bass guitar.Name

As this is my final year, I am starting to think about what I will do next.
I am hoping to find voluntary work or paid employment within the health
