It is never too late to start learning. As well as with the kids, we look to find the best way how to engage adults to help them to breach the employments or higher education gaps that may be holding them back from progression - in their lives or careers (in general)
Our flagship courses are:
ICT Level 2 (funded)
English and Maths Functional Skills Level 1 & 2 (funded)
ESOL support lessons
Life in the UK preparatory lessons
In addition, we support young school leavers and everyone who needs professional guidance, career pathway consultation, or simply a CV or Supporting statement writing together with soft skills and career coaching.
If you are looking to start your teaching career as a Teaching Assistant or higher, we could offer you a work placement.
The course is suitable for all English and EAL speakers. It helps to build your confidence and achieve career or educational goals. ICT (‘computers’ for short) with Functional Skills in Maths and English Level 1 and 2 became a gateway or a ‘must have’ requirement to better employment and some Access and Higher Education (university) courses.
