More Than Just Learning English
As part of the KAE Future Pathways programme, ESOL is about much more than language learning. Alongside developing your English skills you'll have the opportunity to take part in a range of activities and workshops designed to support your personal and professional development.
The programme includes:
- Team building activities to develop confidence, communication and teamwork skills
- Life skills to help you navigate day-to-day life and become more independent
- An Introduction to First Aid, helping you learn valuable safety and emergency response skills
- An Introduction to IT, developing essential digital skills for study and employment
- Careers education, information, advice and guidance, including support with CV writing and job applications
Gain Valuable Qualifications
Throughout the course, learners work towards recognised qualifications that can support future education and career goals.
At the end of the programme, you could achieve:
- City & Guilds Skills for Life ESOL qualifications (Entry 1 to Entry 3) in reading, writing and speaking and listening
- Functional Skills Maths qualifications from Enrty Level to Level 2
- Level 2 Functional Skills Maths is equivalent to a GCSE pass, making it a valuable qualification for further study and employment
These qualifications provide a strong foundation for progression into other study programmes, apprenticeships or work opportunities.
