ConnEct: Home Learning

I enjoy using ConnEct because I am able to work around my health and I can do it at my own pace
- Gurpreet

I like it because if I had to go into college I wouldn't be able to do any A Levels due to my health.
- Leigh Ann

Loughborough College offers students with chronic illnesses the opportunity to continue their education through home learning. The programme offers an alternative way of completing their GCSEs and A Levels through completing online lessons. Students will have regular contact with a progress tutor as well as subject specific support from experienced tutors. This support network is in place to ensure progress is monitored and that students receive the individual support they need. While this support is in place the programme requires all students to be self-motivated and have the ability to work independently.
