Adult Education Service

The adult education service runs courses across the city at community centres and facilities, but many are run from their main site at Old Hall Street, where disabled access is fairly good.


The college has suitable adapted equipment like computers and software, hearing loops etc.


As well as reasonable physical access, the Adult Education Service provides Learning support for all students - they can help you with planning a career, and with learning and course work.


They also offer some disability specific support, such as adapted learning materials, support for students with dyslexia, sign language, other interpreting services, help with reading and writing, etc
You will be assessed for disability support (such as a note-taker) in the registration period.


The Adult Education service runs many different courses from flower arranging and pottery to languages – including British Sign Language - and work-based courses. You can find out more by looking at their course guide, available from the college or local libraries, and online>>


Students doing courses in basic skills, or ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages), can study for free.
All other students must pay a registration fee.
Other fees vary depending on the course, but if you receive:


Council Tax Benefit, Housing Benefit, Income Support, Job Seekers Allowance, or Incapacity Benefit


You only pay the registration fee.

People over 60, can also pay a reduced fee.
For people on low incomes, help with fees or childcare expenses may be available from the Access Fund – ask at the college.
