Will my college tell my parents I’m transgender?

I’m planning on going to Westminster kingsway college in September. I identify as male and I’m transgender, but my parents aren’t supportive. I want to obviously have my preferred name on my ID card and on the register, but not if my parents will find out.
Does the college make you give your parents contact information when you enrol? Because they didn’t ask for it when I applied. Cause I really don’t want them to know because it’ll upset them and also I don’t want them then going to parents evenings and having to do the whole thing of telling teachers to deadname me in front of my parents and stuff.
Also, do they have a preferred name option when you enrol? Since I did apply with my legal name.
