SEND – Learning Opportunities

We have a range of programmes that have been developed for students who need additional support to help them prepare for life after college or future college courses. 

All of our courses have small groups, learning support assistants to help you at all times, flexible programmes to meet individual goals and access to specialist technical facilities and an after-college club. 

To help you settle into the college and to make sure the course is right for you, we will arrange visits and taster days before the start at college. 

Your study programmes

You will have a wide range of entry level learning programmes to choose from which include:

• Work and independence
• Technical tasters 
• Pathway to employment 
• Retail, catering and business

The small and supportive groups will help you develop your independence and work skills, confidence, personal skills, English and maths.

We will work with you to help you decide which course would be best for you to develop your skills. 

Your course could include:

• Technical subjects such as catering, animal care, sports, childcare, art and design, gardening and woodwork
• Supported work placements 
• Independent living skills-cooking and travel training 
• Enterprise projects

There will be a high level of support to work with you individually to reach your potential and help you progress on to another course.
