Work Progressions

The aim of the programme is to increase independent living, functional skills, vocational skills and employability skills in order to access supported or open employment in the future.

This programme is timetabled across three days. You will start college at 9am and finish at 2.30pm, 4.15pm or 4.30pm. You have a morning and a lunch break each day and you will be studying with around 10 other students with one tutor and at least one learning support assistant. The curriculum is based upon project-based learning, which means you will get actively involved in each session and have the opportunity to work in teams and individually. You won’t just be sitting in a classroom you will be out and about in the community, collaborating with other groups from Supported Studies and other curriculum areas from across the college. Although your course is based at the Stevenage campus, for some elements of your course you may access other sites.
