Spring – 8th January – 27th March

Between terms there will be breaks during which time teaching is paused but this also allows learners to catch up if necessary.

Do I have to write any essays or do tests?

No, these courses are created so that learners do not have to complete essays and tests to measure their progress. We are much more keen on learners being able to focus on their learning and being able to pursue lines of research or interest as they progress.

What happens if I miss some weeks?

We understand that holidays may be booked or other circumstances arise. Don’t panic if that happens, you can work at your own pace and come back to missed weeks if you need to.
