Schools Programme

Newstart provides an Alternative Provision for 14-19 year old students from schools, education organisations and local authorities, leading to a qualification in Construction Skills and Creative Craft.

We work with SEN schools who have pupils with autism and other associated learning difficulties.

Currently we are working with both Elm Court and Lansdowne schools to deliver the following courses:

NCFE Award in Creative Craft Level 1 and 2.  (Construction and Woodwork)

NCFE programme helps learners to develop skills in Carpentry and Painting & Decorating which provides them with the underpinning knowledge of the trade.

The course includes the use of materials and resources, the safe use of tools and equipment and knowledge of the craft to enable them to progress to NVQs in their chosen skill area.

NCFE Occupational Studies for the Workplace.

This is a multi -skills course including the following skill areas: Carpentry, Painting & Decorating, Tiling, Wallpapering and Basic Electrics. The course gives the student the necessary skills and knowledge to progress on to college and apprenticeships.

Skills Tasters

We deliver a taster programme which enables learners to sample a number of skill areas to help them decide a career pathway.

Tasters can be adapted to suit the requirements of the school or organisation.
