Foundation Learning

Foundation Learning has been created to help you to progress to level 2 — GCSE grades A* to C or equivalent — and into employment. This programme may be suitable for you if you are working at entry level or level 1. It will allow you to work at your own pace to get the skills and qualifications you need to succeed. Through Foundation Learning, you can get Awards, Certificates and Diplomas. You will study a specific subject or job, personal and social development and functional skills — English, IT and maths.
