We can help you work towards the English and maths qualifications you need in order to progress onto a university, vocational or apprenticeship programme.

Improving your English and maths skills can help you become more confident in your work and daily life, and help you to prepare for further study or training. This well-established programme offers you the opportunity to improve your skills within a supportive and friendly atmosphere. The courses will be assessed through assessments and examinations.

For English qualifications there are a total of four formal assessments to be completed in order to attain the full qualification: reading, writing and two speaking and listening assessments.  For the maths qualification there is 1 formal assessment per Level which is split into calculator and non-calculator.

Students can progress through levels from Entry Level qualifications to Levels 1 and 2. The assessments are paper based at Entry Level and either on-line or paper based at Levels 1 and 2. During your time on the course, we’ll monitor your progress closely and work with you to adjust your level accordingly.

Classes run at various times across our three campuses as per table below (time slots are subject to change). Your level of English and/or maths, as well as group sizes may also have to be taken into consideration when determining which class times are available to you.
