The course will start at 6pm on Sat 19th July leaving students with plenty of time to get to Clynfyw. Each of the weekly blocks will complete early afternoon on the second Saturday.
The CACDP Level 2 BSL Curriculum will be followed. Three themes will be covered during the course:

You have the option of taking this course with three CACDP assessments. If you pass all three assessments you will be awarded the Level Two Certificate in British Sign Language. This is a nationally recognised qualification and will allow you to progress onto Level 3 or a pre-level 3 course.
