Many, but not all of our ESOL students are new to the UK and enter with little or no English skills. We pride ourselves in offering a warm and caring environment for these young people, enabling them to grow and gain confidence. Alongside this, students complete Functional Skills English and maths with embedded ICT sessions. Our focus is to develop reading, writing and speaking & listening skills.
The heart of this program is teaching English, alongside employability and life skills. We offer enrichment trips, work experience opportunities and wellbeing activities to fully support transition into life in the UK. After completing a year at SDT, many of our young people transition to Bhasvic or GBMet college to continue their studies.
ESOL students learn about becoming a barista at ProBaristas in One Church Brighton. Students also had a recent wellbeing trip to the Ecotherapy centre in Stanmer Park.
Please contact us for a chat and a tour of the college if you are interested in studying with us. We look forward to supporting you in your journey of discovery, growth, and success.
