Welcome to Activate Learning’s Further Education Clearing

Last minute places for 16-18 year-olds wanting to do full time courses

Clearing 2026 is now open

Applications are closed for our full-time further education courses.

You can still reserve a place though by booking a clearing appointment.

IMPORTANT: All appointments are in person at the college you have chosen. There are no telephone or video appointments.

Please note: Activate Learning will be in touch with all applicants who hold a conditional offer and are awaiting their results to provide details of an applicant-only Clearing session, should one be required.
