Basic Skills Foundation
Do you need help with English and Maths?
Wold you like to improve your reading and writing?
Do you speak another language and need help with speaking, reading and writing in English?
To help you improve these skills we offer 'Skills for Life' courses which are both accredited and non-accredited:
- ESOL
- Literacy
- Numeracy
- Citizenship
See the Skills for Life Flyer
We value what learners already know and build on this to help learners achieve skills and competence in a relaxed and supportive manner.
We offer courses both in the community or in the workplace, we support learners who are studying on other WEA programmes and we also deliver specific courses where literacy or numeracy are integrated into subjects.
National tests are also available in Literacy and Numeracy at Level 1 and 2.
For more information please see National Test Information.
