Due to popular demand for ESOL courses, provided by Bury Adult Learning Service, a new course called ‘English Summer School’ will start on Monday, 13 July for two weeks.

This short course is aimed at all levels and is designed to develop the learners' knowledge of life in the UK to help them become more active citizens, which may help with Home Office Citizenship applications.

The course contains citizenship materials and components that go towards an applicant’s leave to remain in the UK and the requirement of having to attend a recognised course for a minimum of 20 hours.

The Summer School placement will also guarantee the learner a place on the ESOL Skills for Life courses which starts in September.

The ESOL courses have helped students to go onto further study at college and university for qualifications in various subjects such as IT, accountancy, photography and maths as well as helping people to gain employment.

For more information or to enrol on the English Summer School course telephone 0161 253 5766.
