Programme Overview
Support back into education or apprenticeships
This programme supports young people aged 14–18 who need extra support to rebuild their confidence, develop valuable skills, and take positive steps towards returning to education or progressing into an apprenticeship.
Our Functional Skills courses in English, Maths, and ICT combine learning with employability, personal, and social skills to help you build confidence, develop practical knowledge, and achieve your goals.
You will learn in a supportive environment, at your own pace, while gaining the skills you need for everyday life, further learning, and future employment.
Please note: The delivery of the vocational options programme depends on funding availability. Where funding is not available, some services may be offered at standard rates. Additional support, such as educational psychology, childcare, mentoring, and coaching, may involve separate costs.
