Classes in English and Maths are available from Entry Level through to Level 2 (achievement at Level 2 is comparable to GCSE standard).

Classes in ICT are available at Level 1 and Level 2 but, for those of you who are less confident in this area, our Entry Level ICT accredited programme may be more suitable. This will assist you in taking those first steps with email, searching the Internet and creating documents in Microsoft Word.

To be eligible for an Essential Skills course in the 2024/2025 academic year, students must be 16 on or before 1st July 2024.
