Beginners: This course assumes no prior knowledge of the language and will deal with basic vocabulary on topics
such as numbers, greetings, shopping, holidays etc.
Intermediate: This course is suitable for learners who have 1-2 years’ prior study. Topics will be dealt with in more
depth and grammar will include tense formation and usage plus extended sentence construction.
Advanced: This course assumes good knowledge of the subject equivalent to GCSE/O Level. Topics will be of a
more cultural nature, reflecting the interests of the learners. Complex grammar points will be covered in some detail.
Some adjustments to the programme may be necessary if the numbers of people applying for any class are too high or
too low. We will try to contact applicants in advance if it is likely that a group will be undersubscribed and cancelled
or oversubscribed and split up. Courses normally last for 30 sessions during the year.
Adults are asked to pay fees set in line with Calderdale Adult Learning evening class rate, currently £4.35 per hour
(appropriate concessions apply). Places are free for: students in full time education, staff from Crossley Heath and its
specific partner schools. Free and reduced fees also apply to those who would qualify for them under the criteria used
by Calderdale Adult Learning (see above). A full year’s fees are due after the third session from those who do not
qualify for concessions.
Provisional enrolment will take place at the first session. Once you have completed and returned the attached
form, simply come to the first class as timetabled below. The first three sessions are free and payment is not
required until after the third session.
Visitors to the Languages Centre should use the entrance to the school grounds which is on Skircoat Moor Road. After
