THERE are places available on English and maths courses starting this month at The College at Braintree.

Courses are offered at many levels, from beginners to classes for those who would like to work towards a national qualification in literacy or numeracy equivalent to a GSCE grade A*- C. Courses are free for UK residents without a prior level two qualification.

Courses run throughout the week and daytime or evening sessions are available.

The classes provide a structured and supported environment in which students can build up their confidence and work at their own pace. They are suitable for anyone wishing to improve their CV or prepare for going on to further study.

Those interested should contact The College at Braintree by calling 01376 557020 or e-mailing enquiries@braintree.ac.uk
