Foundation Learning - LaunchPad Re-engage with Education (FFDL)

Time to reset, refocus, and relaunch your future.

If school did not work out - or if you are just feeling stuck - LaunchPad is your second chance to get back into learning your way. This is not your typical classroom. It is a supportive, low-pressure space designed to help you rebuild confidence, learn real-life skills, and figure out what’s next.

What is it all about?

Find Your Spark Again

This course is all about helping you rediscover your motivation, build up your confidence, and get ready for the next steps - whether that is college, training or something else that excites you.

Tailored Just for You

You will get personalised support with sessions that fit yourneeds, interests, and goals. We will help you tackle challenges, set goals, and make a plan for your future.

Skills for Life (Not Just School)

You will work on the kind of skills that actually matter - like communication, problem-solving, teamwork, and resilience. These are key for further education andlife outside the classroom.

A Safe Space to Grow

LaunchPad takes place in a small, friendly building away from the main College. It is relaxed, low-stress, and built to make you feel comfortable while you find your feet again.

Who is it for?

If you are 16-18 and currently not in education, employment or training.

LaunchPad is here for you. Whether you are ready to dive back into learning or just need some time and support to figure things out - we have got your back.

You will be assessed by informal assessments throughout the programme.

You must be aged 16-18 years old or 16-24 years if you hold an EHCP.

Upon completion, you could progress onto further study within the College.
