Community Learning Courses |
Adults with SEND
We offer a learner-centred range of courses to help learners with learning difficulties, disabilities, and autism to develop their skills to increase their independence and to flourish in life. Our courses can help you to increase your confidence to socialise, improve your well-being and to learn a new skill. We offer a wide variety of courses ranging from Arts and Crafts to Learning to Cook Healthy Meals.
All community learning courses are not eligible for fee reduction, and there may be a charge for materials for some courses.
You will be required to complete a self-declaration form, so we are aware of the support you need. Our learner support team will work with you to make sure that any adjustments are in place before you start the course. Community learning courses are not eligible for in-class learner support, but you are welcome to bring someone to support you during your class. They will need to register with us as a volunteer.
We welcome volunteers that are happy to come into college and provide support for any of our community learning courses.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH
We work with our partners in the community to offer courses outside of the college in community venues such as libraries and day centres. Courses are bespoke to meet the needs of the service users. These courses are free, however there may be small charge for materials.
We actively seek to work in partnership with Bexley-based community organisations, particularly those working in the least affluent areas of Bexley. We strive to work with all sections of Bexley’s diverse community. We are always looking to work with new partners.
