Worthing College is proud to announce that it is partnering with The SAND Project to launch a new initiative to empower young people through real-world learning.  

The SAND Project is an organisation that offers practical and meaningful learning experiences in real life settings for young people with extra support needs.  

In order to help with this inspiring project, the college will soon be offering  young people from the project with an interest in grounds maintenance and agriculture valuable work experience on-site at Worthing College.  

They will help care for and maintain outdoor areas across the college, such as the rugby pitch, courts, and the former forest school’s zone.  

This gives the students valuable experience in land management, teamwork, and self-led work, skills that will help them in future employment opportunities.  

To help support this project, the college is asking for sponsors to come forward to help fund the purchase the tools and equipment to support this year’s learners, and to improve the overall quality of the playing surfaces and grounds.
