Pre Access Level 2

About

This course is for students that want to develop their basic academic skills and wish to progress onto higher education in the future, or further their employment opportunities.

We understand that you may have been out of education for a long time, so we'll ease you in gently and provide you with all the support you need.

This course is for students that want to develop their basic academic skills and wish to progress onto higher education in the future, or further their employment opportunities.

As you study either GCSEs or Functional Skills in English and Maths (depending on your previous qualifications), you'll have the chance to further enhance additional abilities whilst studying Social Sciences (including Psychology-related topics).

The Pre Access Level 2 course will provide an opportunity for developing studying, academic skills and confidence. The course is for adults aged over 19 years of age who are intending to progress on to either our Access to HE Diplomas or Foundation Programmes but who do not currently have the required entry qualification.
