Skills for life


Learning is for life and we believe that education should be available to everyone who can benefit from it. Our foundation studies courses are designed to help students with learning difficulties or disabilities build their independence and confidence.

We offer bridging programmes to ease the step from school to College and personalised learning plans to support the complex and individual needs of each student. We support our students through knowledgeable and caring staff, by the effective and relevant use of technology and other resources and through peer groups. 96% of parent and carers believe students in this area receive the support they need to succeed.

Students will also continue to develop their core English and maths skills by undertaking a Functional Skills qualification awarded by NCFE.
