Course Overview

This course is for young people aged 16 – 19 (or to 25 with an EHCP). The course is an ideal next step for learners who have taken an Entry 3 qualification within the college, or for learners who are assessed at interview to be working at Entry 3 – Level 1. Motivation and enthusiasm are more important than qualifications!

Entry Requirements

NONE You do not need any formal qualifications. There will be a test at interview to assess English, maths and communication skills.

Yes – but it is more of a discussion than an interview. We want to open the doors that are closed to you right now and an important part of this is seeing you in person and discussing how we can help. You will also sit an English and Maths assessment to help us establish your level. Please bring any exam, qualification certificates and support documents to interview.

Please apply online via the green button. If you are already a student at Barnet Southgate College, ask your tutor to refer you. Contact the Curriculum Manager, Helen Brown: helen.brown@barnetsouthgate.ac.uk. We look forward to meeting you!
