Our Vocational Studies pathway consists of an ‘insight into industries’ programme whereby learners will take part in tasters and work experience within various industries. This is ideal for those who are undecided on what vocational route they would like to take or for those wanting to have their achievements recognised across different industries.
Insight into industry will support movement between different sectors and increase engagement where learners start in one area and then decide to switch to another.
Vocational Studies will allow learners to work towards a Certificate at levels Entry 3 through to Level 2, which incorporate a range of units to help develop skills within employability, personal and life skills and maths and English, whilst also developing industry knowledge.
The mixture of skills delivered prepares learners for higher levels of study, including the skills needed to progress onto their next steps. We aim to provide a carousel of project-based activities to ensure engagement and achievement.
Work experience can be offered to help those learners ready to take the next steps to employment.
Personal Progress has an insight to industries element which enables learners who exhibit complex needs, a multi-sensory experience which provides real life scenarios whilst incorporating vital life skills and physical development.
This pathway will support movement between different sectors and increase overall social, practical and visual awareness, further exploring and discovering the skills needed to move into adulthood.
Learners will have the opportunity to work towards a qualification in Personal Progress and/or Skills for active learners.
Qualifications will help to develop cognitive development, physical awareness, fine motor and communication skills, as well as allowing Learners to become part of the community, promote independence and develop travel awareness.
The mixture of skills delivered prepares learners for adulthood and their future, including the skills needed to progress onto their next steps. We aim to provide a carousel of project-based activities to ensure engagement and achievement.
