Formal Entry Requirements

You will need to complete an initial assessment and then be assessed at your appropriate learning level before you can be offered a place on the programme.

You will also have the chance to participate in charity fundraising and community volunteer work, to support your personal and social development.

How will I be assessed?

You will complete assessments individually as you progress through the course, and we will give you the skills to prepare for each assessment.

Where can I go next?

Completion of this course will help you move towards other foundation programmes or give you the opportunity to study at a higher level at college. If you are looking for new challenges we can offer help with the transition.
