Return to Learning

Whether you are currently out of work; or you'd like to change your job but are unsure of how to gain the qualifications you need to make the move; or maybe you are a parent that would like to re-train or start your own business: there's a route into learning that's perfect for you at TyneMet College.

We work in partnership with a number of organisations in Tyne and Wear to offer a range of courses designed to encourage adults to return to learning.

Our work in the community, through Surestart Children’s Centres and in other community groups helps us to give adults a stepping stone back to learning. 

We offer a wide range of courses including:

  • First Aid for Babies and Children
  • Creative Crafts
  • Supporting Teaching and Learning in Schools
  • Food Hygiene
  • Helping Skills
    and many others.
