SeevicSupport for Learning
Learning Plus
Seevic College aims to provide a learning experience tailored to the needs and abilities of each student, to help them achieve their full potential. All students are offered a confidential interview with a specialist tutor when they join us, and we provide support according to individual needs. All students who wish to discuss their needs before or after joining Seevic College are welcome to call into Learning Plus at any time. You do not need an appointment to do this.
Our supportive and approachable tutors assist students with issues such as dyslexia, basic skills, English as an Additional Language (EAL), study skills and any other identified needs, to encourage independence. A wide range of
practical information technology (IT) resources and equipment are available to assist students.
We recognise that some students need to be stretched and challenged to build on their individual talents and strengths. Our new Gifted and Talented programme aims to help these students to fulfil their potential. For more information about Learning Plus and our Gifted and Talented programme, please email info@seevic-college.ac.uk or call 01268 756 111. If you require additional learning support for whatever reason, we can discuss this at your interview.

"English Language & Literature is my favourite subject as I want to have a career in writing fiction and this really helps me towards achieving my dreams. My subjects are taught by Tutors who love what they do so I learn and enjoy it a lot. The support at Seevic has been great as I was recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis." Brooke Thomas
