We run short courses through the year for D/deaf adults aged over 19, funded by Wandsworth Lifelong Learning. Course subjects include English, Maths, Employability, Digital skills and Introduction to Hospitality. We also run a Woodworking/hand tools course, and Art and Craft to support mental wellbeing.
Courses are free and are organized in short, six-week long blocks. This means you do not have to wait too long to join one of our courses!
Classes are small with about 6 students, taught using BSL and SSE. All our tutors are experienced in their subject areas as well as in working with D/deaf learners. Some classes are taught by a D/deaf tutor.
Our aim is to support progression into other further education courses and work, whilst developing skills and experience. Some students chose our courses to help develop their skills in everyday life. We include trips to consolidate learning in real life situations.
