Burnley College

the opportunity to combine sports training with academic study

Burnley College is an institution with the aim to build futures, change lives and effectively prepare each student that visits us, for the diverse demands of life after college.

As a TASS Dual-Career Accredited site we are proud to offer prospective students the opportunity to gain a place on our Elite Athlete Programme.

The programme has been designed for Burnley College Students competing either regionally, nationally or internationally within their sport. This gives athletes the opportunity to combine their sports training with academic study, under the guidance of our specialist strength and conditioning coaches and lecturers.

More about this site

As an athlete studying at one of the UK’s top sporting Colleges, you will benefit from a package of goal setting, movement screening, regular performance testing and expert strength and conditioning coaching, all whilst having access to our state-of-the-art high-performance gym.

As part of our TASS dual-career accreditation we also provide support to our athletes with their studies, regarding further study outside of class, rearrangement of exam times or access to learning materials if unable to attend classes.

Monthly workshops allow student-athletes to develop the skills needed to pursue a successful dual career. The workshop programme stretches across the academic year, covering topics such as time management, wellbeing, nutrition and psychology, enabling students to effectively manage their hectic lifestyles.
