Entry Level 2: Preparation for Employment

ENTRY LEVEL 2

On this course you will study in a small group, taking an interesting mixture of subjects which will help to prepare you for work and independent living. The course is designed for students with moderate learning difficulties. It will provide you with pathways to further qualifications, such as an Entry Level 3 qualification or to supported employment.

You will be supported in class by Learning Support Practitioners. They will help to meet your individual needs and give you support with what you find difficult, for example, understanding what you need to do, reading or writing. Most students are supported in a small group, but occasionally students need one-to-one support.

Applications to this course should be made with the assistance of your careers adviser and school.
