Supported Learning
We offer a range of Entry and Level 1 courses including provision for adult learners with learning difficulties and/or disabilities. Our specialist staff will encourage you to reach your full potential and help you to make decisions about the future. These may include a desire to progress on to other courses within College, move into employment, supported employment or into independent living.
All students will gain a recognised qualification appropriate to their individual needs and full-time students will be supported in developing their English, maths and ICT skills. Part-time New Horizons students will gain a recognised qualification appropriate to their individual needs. Courses for learners with Mental Health needs are available under the LEAP programme.
Students can progress on to courses at a higher level within Pathways to Progression or on to Level 1 courses within other areas of the College. Those who do not wish to continue with their education are supported to develop the necessary skills enabling them to move into employment, supported employment or into independent living.
The Directions course offers students short work placements based on their individual interests and students on the Building Futures programme have the opportunity to access a range of taster sessions across the College.
