Hi, you mentioned a message about changes to ESOL in Nov 2015, but as far as I can see it's not mentioned here. Should I check elsewhere or has it just been missed out?
Yours, Julia Brady

Subject: Guided learning hours
Hi,
Can I ask for some advice? I've noticed that the number of
guided learning hours leading to SFL ESOL exams varies
enormously between colleges, even though it is recommended
that there should be 120 hours leading to S&L, 90
leading to Writing, and 60 leading to Reading exams.
If we deliver a course using fewer guided learning hours,
what would the funding implications be? For example, if we
deliver a course leading to speaking and listening exams in
45 hours, what might the repercussions be?
I'd be very grateful to hear what other colleges are doing
while planning for next year.
Many thanks
Rachel Simpson

Subject: Lucky dip

AuctionAid lucky dip!

possibly ask future donors to maybe wrap up their donations
in newspaper.. So that we can just put the cloak room ticket
on them on the night . That would save us a lot of
time ..

mystery prize .. (donated by you! )
