At assessment we will guide you onto the right class through a one-to-one interview with a specialist teacher.
Your skills will be tested and we will discuss your needs and availability.
Once we have agreed a suitable class for you, you will need to enrol and pay any fees that are due as soon as possible.
You will not have a confirmed place in the class until you have enrolled.
Please note that due to high demand for our classes, we cannot guarantee a place for every learner.
We offer a range of courses for ESOL, English, Maths and IT which can help you on your path to employment.
