The Leighton Project
We offer:
- A two year educational programme that leads to the achievement of the nationally recognised Essential Skills Award.
- Literacy, numeracy and IT and you will develop skills for independent living and for work.
- An individually tailored curriculum to suit your needs.
- Regular meetings with your tutor to decide what you need to learn and how you will learn it.
- A range of activities through which you can develop your life skills including art, drama, music, gardening and cooking.
- The opportunity to do work experience in your chosen area.
Further Information:
The course is practical, so you will have opportunities to learn to travel around the community and visit local gardens, cafes, the bank, library, sports centre, supermarket, health centre, shops, cinemas, museums and galleries.
You can make an appointment to visit the Leighton Project and do a taster session, to see if the course is right for you.
We have strong links with the 7 o'clock club, a social club for young people with learning difficulties.
We aim to guide you to develop personal and social skills that will help you enjoy and be successful in your life.
