Study Programmes and Curriculum Content
Our framework for purposeful learning
- Individual, person-centred approach to teaching, learning, and assessment, reflecting the four pathways of preparation for adulthood
- Our curriculum focuses on Art Design and Craft attainment and qualifications. Functional skills such as English, Maths, Communication and ICT are embedded throughout each individual study programme. Where students aged 16-18, and 19-25 with an EHC Plan, have not attained the required grades in English and Maths, our study programmes will comply with the ESFA condition of funding regulations.
- Engage Inc. is our full time creative learning framework, giving access to level 2 and 3 qualifications, over 1 or 2 years, with work experience.
“Pinc College. is providing the ideal environment for my daughter’s learning. I couldn’t ask for anything more.”
