PRESTON'S Cardinal Newman College has a problem: its new prospectus is proving too popular.

The college has printed 25 per cent more than last year, but has had to rush an order for reprints for its February 16 open day.

Admissions manager Ian Haselden said: "We've never given out so many prospectuses before."

He added: "Curriculum 2000 is going to prove to be good news for students, giving them a much clearer system of study and more flexibility and choices. Modular courses ensure students are clear about their own progress and ability to cope."
