The Flexi 3 Steps:
- You will be set weekly tasks to complete and asked to submit your Progress Report with a short video clip.
- Your teacher will check your progress and typing technique.
- You will then receive individual feedback and the following week’s typing tasks.
This course is ideal for our DofE students who would like a more flexible course. As it is a Duke of Edinburgh course, pupils must commit to completing the tasks given for at least an hour each week, over a 12 week period. It is a perfect course for our overseas students too
