Any ideas for part time jobs I could do during college?

I think that you're on the right path, retail jobs and hospitality ones are usually the go-to for university and college students because the schedule can be pretty flexible and your future manager can work around your needs to make a rota that works for you. Other jobs that may work with your school schedule that are open to underage workers are babysitting, tutoring, or being a cashier. The job pool can be limited for underage workers, for example you won't be able to work in places like factories or pubs. However your best bet would be to look online for jobs on Indeed, Jobs.ac.uk, Glassdoor, and other such online platforms. The government website also has a search tool you might be able to use https://findajob.dwp.gov.uk/
It's very positive you're trying to gain some experience in the work field at such a young age, let us know how it goes

Also if you do a more generic search for jobs in your area for babysitting then im sure some might come up that might not be registered on the websites.
Tutoring jobs can be quite hard to get but theirs this website as well which you can actually tutor people from different countries and teach them to speak english.I think its mostly volunteering but its good experience before getting a tutoring job

Retails great experience as well.Im sure whatever you pick you will be brilliant at it and we are proud of you for giving things a go!
Hope this helps a bit
Indeed is a great place to start when looking for jobs. I worked at Primark whilst I was at school and uni and really liked the flexibility. Quite a lot of big companies offer weekend only contracts which you might find useful
