Why Community Connect?
Learn in Your Community
This programme takes place in local community venues - not big College buildings - so you can ease into learning in a relaxed, supportive environment that feels more like your space.
Build Your Skills
We will help you improve your Maths and English at the right level for you, and grow the confidence, communication and life skills you will need to take the next step in education or training.
Tailored to You
You will work with staff to set goals that actually matter to you—whether that is boosting your learning hours, improving focus, or getting ready to move into College life.
