Additional Learning Needs

The Additional Learning Needs Team provides courses for adults with learning difficulties and / or disabilities.

The team offers a variety of opportunities to learners to study during the day in a wide range of courses. Learners are well supported and many of our classes have classroom assistants to help people to learn to the best of their abilities. Some of our courses lead to a qualification and others are about individual learners achieving their individual learning goals.

Learning at Union Street is not only about courses it's about making new friends, increasing your confidence in talking to others and practising skills you already have. The Additional Learning Needs Team will help you do that too.
