About this course

*This course is subject to validation

The ESOL element of the courses focuses on the language skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking. Grammar and specialist vocabulary related to health and social care/childcare are also a very important part of this course and students will be able to develop these areas which will support them with the Health and Social Care/Childcare component of the course.

This course is available at: 

  • 16 hours a week

What you will study

The units you will cover in Childcare and Health and Social Care will be:

  • Human Development - Birth to Older Adult
  • Working with Babies
  • Young Children and their Families to Encourage Language and Literacy Development

These modules of the course are delivered by subject specialists who have first-hand experience of working within Health and Social Care/Childcare profession. This course prepares learners for a range of higher-level qualification including Adult Foundation, Health and Social Care Level 2 and Level 3, or QCF Diploma.

The course will prepare learners for nationally recognised qualifications in both ESOL and Health and Social Care/Childcare. Students will also study Numeracy as part of the programme, which will also lead to a recognised qualification.

What our students say

I came over from Romania two and half years ago. I began at the college studying ESOL, and have now progressed onto studying an Access Course in BTEC Applied Science. My ESOL course was a really helpful course, and everyone was friendly.
