Welcome
There are many courses for you to choose from at times and locations across the borough. There are courses for different needs and lifestyles - daytime, evening and weekend. So whether you are thinking about returning to study, you need to gain extra skills or qualifications for your job, or you want to learn for pleasure, there should be a course in Newham for you.
How to find your class
First choose your course using the courses section:
The courses are listed under section headings with details of day, time, duration and venue. Simply find the course you want and then find where it is taught by looking up the venue code (e.g. BGB = Beckton Globe) on the inside back index of venues.
Venues Section: The venues are listed in alphabetical order and you are given the venue address and telephone number so that you can contact the course provider. The location of each venue is shown on the map.
How to enrol
You should enrol as soon as you can. Some centres will enrol throughout the summer whilst others will take personal enrolments from Monday 2nd September 2019. You are advised to ring the venue for details.
How much do courses cost?
Tuition and exam fees vary across training providers. The fee is normally payable before or at the start of your course. There may be an additional fee for entering an exam or for materials. Please check the full course cost when you enrol.
The different categories of fees described below are for UK/EU Nationals and fees are generally higher for oversea students.
To be eligible for a fully or part-funded course you must be either:
• A resident of the UK/EU for 3 years prior to the beginning of the course
• A British/EU citizen or have the right to reside in the UK
• A refugee who has been resident in the UK since the granting of refugee status
• An asylum seeker with 6 months residency.
This new edition of Newham Adult Learning Services part-time courses guide gives details of over 300 courses which will be offered from September 2019 at Adult Learning Centres across Newham.

If you are over 19 and applying for a course at L3 or above, you will have to pay the full, non-subsidised course fee. For further details, including information on Advanced Learning Loans, please see the 19+ Loans information on page 4.
The main categories for free tuition are:
• English or Maths courses
• In receipt of Job Seekers Allowance or Employment and Support Allowance (Work Related Activity Group)
• Studying your first full Level 2 qualification
• Studying your first full Level 3 qualification having left the British Armed Forces after completing 4 or more years of service or, having completed basic training, been medically discharged due to an injury in active service
• Eligibility will be assessed at enrolment.
Newham residents may be entitled to a reduced tuition fee of £2 per taught hour (plus examination fee and resources costs where applicable) if you are receiving one of the following benefits:
• Disability Allowance
• Personal Independence Payment
• Universal Credit
• State Pension Credit
• Council Tax Benefit
• Housing Benefit
• Income Support
• Working Tax Credit
• Contribution Based ESA (Not Work Related Activity Group) or if you are an unwaged dependent of someone receiving one of the above benefits.
You will be required to bring proof of your entitlement to free or reduced tuition (e.g. benefit book) when you enrol.
Crèche Facilities
Some of the centres listed have daytime crèche facilities for adult students with children aged between 2 and 5 years of age. Crèches are fully equipped and staffed by experienced workers but places have to be booked in advance. Please ask about childcare facilities when you enrol.
Adults with Learning Difficulties and Disabilities
Newham welcomes disabled students and if possible, will make special arrangements to help all members of the community participate in classes. However, some centres may be more accessible than others and you should telephone for more information before you enrol.
Information Advice and Guidance
If you need to talk to someone before you enrol about:
• Finding the right course
• Where your studies can lead you
• What support is available to help you to succeed.
Please telephone the venue and we can arrange an appointment for an interview.
Details of courses in this directory are correct at the time of going to press but may be subject to minor alterations. The right is reserved to cancel courses if there are insufficient enrolments.

If you are over 19 and applying for a course at Level 3 or above, you will need to pay the full course fee – there are no subsidised rates available to 19+ Level 3 learners.
The full course fee covers ALL costs of your course including tuition, exam fee, DBS (where necessary) and linked course resources.
Provided you meet all the criteria for studying at our centres and have been offered a place on your chosen course, there are two ways in which you can meet the cost:
• You can pay the full fee yourself either as a one-off payment or in an agreed pattern of instalments.
• You can apply to the Student Loan Company for an interest free loan to cover the costs of your course fee.
The monthly payment is made directly to Newham Adult Learning Service so you do not have to worry about making payments for your course once your loan is agreed.
Although the loan from the Student Loan Company is repayable, repayments do not apply until you reach an annual income of approximately £25,000 and, in any case, at that point monthly repayments are very small.
Newham Adult Learning Service fully supports the Student Loan application process for students as we are aware it can be daunting for those who have not applied for this type of loan before. If you are thinking about taking a Level 3 course and would like more information about applying for a loan, or have decided to take a loan and would like help with the application process, please contact:
[email protected] can apply for a 19+ Advanced Learning Loan in respect of any course which is
identified by the logo.
Are you over 19 years old and want to study for a Level 3 qualification?
Would you like to know more about 19+ Advanced Learning Loans?
