ESOL – Full-Time

You can study ESOL from Entry 1 to Level 2. We offer both Part-time and Full-time ESOL courses.

Full-time studies take place 3 days per week, usually between 9am-3pm at our Bridgend Campus.

Part-time studies take place one evening per week 6-8pm at our Pencoed Campus. We also offer some part-time daytime studies, but please speak to our team for specific details.

If you wish to study Part-time, please visit our Part-time ESOL page

Part-time ESOL

Our ESOL courses include all 4 skills:

  • Listening
  • Speaking
  • Reading
  • Writing

Grammar and vocabulary are developed in the classroom and students are encouraged to choose the topics which are important to them, especially in their everyday lives.

To make sure you are studying at the right level, you will be asked to attend an interview where we will check your speaking and listening skills and also set a short reading and writing assessment.

All courses lead to qualifications which are either ESOL, City and Guilds or Agored Cymru.

To book your place for a test, please complete the form below or linked on the course you wish to study.

For most students, these courses are FREE* of charge, eg, settled migrants, refugees and people seeking asylum. People on a spousal visa may also be entitled to free lessons. There may be a charge for some students, which depends on the type of visa you have. Unfortunately, we cannot accept those who have student or visitor visas.

Information about fees, how much and when and how to pay will be provided at your first appointment when you complete your English language test.

*there is a £40 enrolment fee for most learners – asylum seekers and refugees are exempt.
