Catch22 are excited to announce our new Catch22 College Warrington. Another string to our bow of colleges for post-16 year old students, we continue to provide programmes for learners aged 16-19 who, for whatever reason, do not want, or are unable, to stay in a traditional academic environment.
What does Catch22 college Warrington offer?
Catch22 College Warrington delivers Functional Skills in Maths and English from Entry Level 3 up to Level 2. This gives our learners the academic tools they need to progress into further education, training or employment.
We also deliver a vocational qualification; ‘Introduction to Customer Service’, which is a great addition to learner CVs and equips the learner with key customer service skills that they can apply to many jobs and sectors. The college also offers a range of workshops to support and enable learners to gain foundational employability skills, achieved through a variety of sessions tailored to the young person’s needs and aspirations.
Furthermore, Warrington’s dedicated staff encourage all young people to access work placements and can help to source and support young people into vocation-specific work experience. This offers realistic insight into the world of employment and helps to develop students’ skills and confidence.
Student-centred education, supported by the community
The college works closely with local employment and community partners to offer relevant work experience and volunteering opportunities that complement career plans. We also work closely with learners to outline career goals and aspirations so that we can build a plan for success once they leave the Catch 22 College.
We hope that during their time with us at Catch22 they have developed a strong sense of independence and are ready to take on the big wide world with confidence. But we are mindful that this is a big jump for some so always endeavour to support our learners the best we can. For example, support is available for six months after a young person has left the college, whether that be online check ins or face-to-face support sessions.
Finally, our staff understand that everyone progresses at their own pace which is why we deliver a roll-on roll-off programme, meaning that young people can join us at any point in the academic year.
