Level 2 Technical Qualification
The Foundation Programme at Cirencester College is a one year Level 2 technical programme. Ideal for students who are hoping to progress to a Level 3, T-level or Vocational course or who are thinking of going straight into employment, training or an apprenticeship.
English and Maths Qualifications
Aside from the requirement for Maths and English at grade 4 – we know from employers that what they really want is literacy and numeracy skills in the work place e.g. Ratio is vital when mixing concrete, equally it is integral when looking at how many staff per child in a Nursery. We will bring the ‘real’ use of Maths and English to life!
Work Experience
There is an expectation to complete 105hrs of work experience – there is a huge amount of flexibility in how this is claimed and we encourage learners to seek out a variety of experiences and not just one – knowing what you DON’T want to do is as important as being clear on what you DO want to do next!
HPQ/EPQ Project Based Qualification
This is a GCSE equivalence and offers the opportunity to explore your own interests and other potential pathways. Here you will be offered guidance on how to complete but there is an emphasis on incremental independency as you plan and prepare for next steps.
Tutorial and Work Skills
