This is an Entry 3 vocational programme designed to help you to develop the skills and attitudes to succeed. 

It will enable you to study units from the BTEC Entry Level 3 Certificate in Vocational Studies as a non-accredited qualification, Functional Skills Maths and Functional Skills English. You will also undertake a work placement and enrichment activities.  Successful completion of this programme then gives you the opportunity to progress to Level 1 and beyond.

You should:

• Have a passion for Business

You may be asked to make a voluntary contribution to trips throughout the year and may also be asked to purchase some personal safety equipment that is relevant to the vocational area.

You will produce a portfolio of evidence and will be supported to work towards numeracy, literacy and personal targets which will be reviewed every half term.  You will also sit a Functional English and Maths controlled assessment.   Any inclusion and support needs will be assessed and reviewed throughout the year and we will work hard to give you the support you need.
