Student Groups

Students who wish to attend a group should first meet us to discuss their learning needs.

Students work on things that they want to learn at their own pace in small friendly groups. Groups have between seven and nine students and meet once a week, usually for two hours.

Students can come to an ongoing group any time, but it is better at the start of a term (September, January, April).

Study Clubs: Students work towards specific individual goals for two hours. These goals may be to pass entrance exams for Police, or support to achieve an SQA module at college.
Focussed Groups: Students work on the same topic for both individual goals and group topics.
Drop-In: Students work for an hour on individual goals.
Short Topic Based Courses – e.g. ‘Bills, Bargains and Banking’.
