    Student Support? Or you could e mail the college - that way whoever filters through their e mails decides who to forward it to and it hopefully gets to the right person.

    Good luck

    great idea Sandy! I would just call the main switchboard number, tell them what your call is about and they will be able to transfer you to hopefully the correct person. You know what some of these switchboards can be like though, you can be passe from pillow to post half the time! Good luck. Let us know how you go on

    I did that too, as I had one day t-time only to fill and suited a student perfectly. Get in touch with student services/support as they usually keep a list of childminders who'll accept care to learn - our at least ours does.
