About our programmes
Our SEND & Transition courses
If you have a learning difficulty, disability or educational need, our dedicated SEND and Transition team is here to help. We pride ourselves in our specialist, wrap-around pastoral care and support. Students can expect tailored learning programmes based on their individual needs. Our specialist lecturers adapt teaching materials and methods to meet a diverse range of learning needs.
We can also facilitate one-to-one support for learners who have more specialised needs. Our learning support assistants (LSAs) promote independence and encourage social and emotional development. They help students understand tasks, manage resources and can also assist with personal care.
Our foundation pathways courses have been designed to meet the needs and abilities of the learner and include a range of nationally recognised qualifications that offer the stepping stones to further education, employment or independent living.
Students can explore a range of different subjects and career paths, helping them make informed decisions about the future.
Many of our courses give students the opportunity to experience vocational areas which may include Art and Design, Media, Hair & Beauty, Care, Catering, Engineering and Business.
If you have any questions, please get in touch.
