16-18s Study Programme

Duration: 11 Months

Our training equips young people who are not quite ready for work, an apprenticeship or academic study with the skills they need to move forward in their careers and lives.

Learners are able to gain valuable qualifications and are supported to access work experience opportunities. We coach learners to be their best selves when being interviewed and help them secure employment with respected companies in the sector of their choice.

It’s not like school, delivery takes place in relatively informal, uncrowded environments with small groups and 1-2-1 support available.

Training is funded by the Department for Education and qualifications are at level 2 (equivalent to GCSEs).

Health and Social Care

Delivered in Dartford, this pathway is perfect for those interested in a career in healthcare: adult/elderly care or working with children.

We offer NCFE CACHE Level 1 Certificate in Introduction to Health, Social Care and Children’s and Young People’s Settings with progression available on to the NCFE CACHE Level 2 Certificate in Health and Social Care.

Learners gain practical experience through placements within the NHS and wider public or private health sectors and build confidence and industry knowledge. With the right results, tutors can support college applications to further studies.

Delivery

The programme runs from September to July, with flexible starts available until January. Sessions are delivered in-person at our centre located in Dartford.

Eligibility

This course is free for young people aged 16–18 (or 16–24 with an Education Health and Care Plan) who are not currently in employment or full-time education.

We are especially looking for young people who may not have done so well at school, but who want to learn and progress their lives.

On completion of this pathway, learners may be eligible with good grade to continue with us on a JGA Apprenticeship in Health and Social Care. Alternatively, they may choose to move on to college, an apprenticeship, or a job.
