Last Thursday, JHNCC put on another outstanding display of what makes this school different. So many students supported our staff to ensure that all visitors came away fully understanding what sets this school apart from others and what this school can provide to those young people who become students here.
You can see more of the Open Evening by viewing the pictures in the slideshow below. You can read more about the College, its mission and values and what difference it can make for your child if you apply to JHNCC in our prospectus here.
