Foundation Degree in Supporting Learning and Teaching
-
I recently finished my Foundation Degree in Supporting Learning and Teaching at Carshalton. Carshalton College has a good range of courses, easy to access by public transport and has a car park on grounds with fitness center and pool with steam room next door as well as good local cafe's; pubs and restaurants. My course was good and informative. Will recommend. The information and experience I gained from my course will help me in the future.
