ADULT COMMUNITY LEARNING AT DARNALL FORUM
Once
again we are running adult community learning courses at Darnall Post Office
and at the Church
of Christ, Living Waters
and the Staniforth Neighbourhood Centre in Darnall.
In
September we hope to offer
·
ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages)
Entry Level 1, 2 and 3, and Level 1 and
2.
·
IT courses in a range of subjects at Levels 1 and
2, including wordprocessing, spreadsheets and desktop publishing.
This will
depend on Council funding and on who the Council asks to deliver adult
community learning courses in Darnall next term.
There are
also some places available NOW on IT
courses at Tinsley One Stop Shop on Bawtry
Road near Meadowhall.
