  • Entry Requirements

    You will need to hold an Educational, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) that has been issued by your Local Authority. There are no formal academic entry requirements as you will work at your own level, however, a literacy level of at least Entry 1 is advisable. All candidates will be interviewed for suitability. You must be fully committed, reliable and punctual.

  • What does the course involve?

    If you need support to decide on your future plans, have few or no formal qualifications, or need to build confidence before your next step, we can offer you a flexible, tailored study programme that caters for a range of interests.

    Your study programme will include employability skills, preparation for adulthood, English and Maths, work experience and the option of other enrichment activities from the wide selection available in college. You will study English and Maths if you do not have a grade 4 or above.

    You will attend a work placement for at least two days a week, with supported job coaching as appropriate, where you will have the opportunity to complete work experience with clear objectives, regular feedback, and support in moving towards further study or work.

  • Additional Notes

    You will also be able to gain a Level 1 or 2 Certificate, depending on your level of study. Progression routes are employment, an apprenticeship or voluntary work.

    Enrichment activities include rugby, basketball, archery, netball, football, rock climbing and more. Kit and equipment are mandatory in all practical sessions. Please enquire at your interview.
