What can I do next

If you achieve a reasonable standard of performance and achievement on this course, you may wish to explore one of the Inclusive Learning Curriculum courses offered at the College e.g. Catering or Care. However, for those who have achieved their Functional Skills Level 1, it may be suitable to consider progression onto a Level 2 course at college.

Progression into work is also encouraged and supported either directly from the Horizons course or via the Supported Internships programme.

If you would like to apply for either of the Horizon courses you can apply on line or complete an application form and send it in to the college. If you need any help please do not hesitate to contact us.

Once your application has been received we will then invite you in for an interview where we can discuss the best options for you and tell you more about what you can expect from the course.

If you wish to visit the college to find out more first you are very welcome to do so.
