Foundation courses are great for students who feel they are not quite ready to commit to a full vocational course or to go into employment. Students will be able to take further development in English, Maths and Information Technology (IT).

Education is more than just learning – it’s also about finding your place in the world. We offer a wide range of externally accredited programmes for students with a Learning Disability Assessment (LDA), Statement of Special Educational Need (SEN) or an Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan.

Our friendly and experienced teaching staff have created supportive learning environments across our Bordesley Green, Hall Green, Handsworth, and Longbridge (Bournville College) campuses. We also run extra activities such as rewarding educational trips and an enrichment programme designed to develop personal and social skills.

We understand that, as students progress through their course, their support needs could well change. We work hard to help students to gain the independent skills needed for work, independent living, and participation in the wider community. Their progress will be monitored and the level of support adjusted, if necessary.

We also provide progression opportunities including supported internships, apprenticeships, and further study. Exam access arrangements are available to eligible students in line with exam board regulations.
