Throughout the programme young people can either develop existing interests or try something new
  • Not in work or full time education?
  • Dropped out and undecided about your future?
  • Bored and can't make a decision about what to do next?
  • Left School or College and hoping to get a job or apprenticeship?
  • At school sixth form and not sure if you wish to continue?
  • Drifting along with no clear direction?
It's time to make a Fresh Start!

Are you aged 16 - 18 and not at school or college or not working? This is your opportunity to kick-start your future with a short Spring Fresh Start course - getting you ready for college or work. We've got two fab courses to choose from, both leading to a qualification.

Introduction to Wood Skills
Suitable for anyone with an interest in practical, hands-on skills, this Introduction to Wood Skills will teach the basics of carpentry and is ideal for those wishing to continue their construction trades training.

Introductory Certificate in Business, Beauty Retail & Administration
This course is a great ‘all-rounder’ for students with an interest in developing skills for work. We will cover customer service, preparation for work in business, retail and administration, social responsibility at work and healthy lifestyles.

Get a qualification that will lead you onto other things! You never know..... but this could give you the motivation to join another course this September, or encourage you to look for work. We will give you lots of support and encouragement to boost your confidence and boost your skills, and advice and guidance about your future options!!
