This full time course is for young people who have progressed from another course from within the Supported Studies provision.
The aim of the course is to prepare learners for an entry level 3 vocational course at the Engineering and Construction Campus (ECC) or to access supported and open employment in the future. You’ll learn through a variety of practical activities, which means you’ll get actively involved to help plan your own work and jobs. There’ll also be links to other facilities at the ECC, to aid future transition.
The timetable runs from 9AM – 2.30PM on two days (practical sessions in our self-contained workshop) and 9AM – 4.15PM on one day (at our Stevenage Campus) and includes:
You’ll also be involved in team-building activities such as preparing the workshop at the start of the day and helping with tea break duties.
Maths and English classes are streamed to enable you to develop these vital skills at a level and pace that is suitable for you.
Learning experiences are tailored for each individual throughout the curriculum, with progress and achievement recorded in a portfolio.
