ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) is aimed at pupils who have a first language other than English.

There will be an intensive focus on improving English for work and study at Elementary and Pre-Intermediate level.

Lecturers will use a variety of teaching methods such as role play and group work to enable you to improve your understanding of English and your speaking and writing. These skills will increase your confidence in everyday life and will help you communicate in the home, with your family, in social situations, and at work.

We will introduce opportunities in different vocational areas of the college like Sport, Hospitality, Engineering, Care, Business, IT, etc.
