Each Springboard centre has a manager and a specialist team comprising Course Team Leaders, Assessment and Transition Co-ordinators, Success Coaches, Learning support assistants and therapists.

With a turnover of £30m, the college provides learning opportunities to over 10,000 students each year from study programmes for 16-18 year olds and apprenticeships through to adult provision locally, regionally and nationally. We were judged Good by Ofsted at our last inspection in December 2023, with outstanding features.
