Foundation courses
A foundation year can develop your skills and make it easier to get started at university. It is an extra year of study at the start of your course that leads in to a full degree programme.
Learn about your chosen subject
And on successful completion, you’ll be ready to progress to the first year of your degree course.
Develop your study skills and confidence
