A modular curriculum


In order for students to benefit from a flexible approach to study, it is essential that we ensure a consistent standard across the curriculum.

Each module is assigned a point value according to the minimum length of time needed to successfully complete it. A 5-point module will require a minimum of 50 hours of study, whilst a 10-point module will require at least 100 hours. The same point system applies wherever the module is studied - either in class or at home.



This means that a student may study partially on a residential or full-time basis, partially through extension classes or special study weekends and partially on a distance learning basis - or any combination of the above - and still benefit from the same curriculum.



There are a number of introductory modules that are essential to progression and some core modules required for certain exit awards, but beyond that there is a good degree of latitude with regards to choice of modules and the order in which they are undertaken.
