Pre-sessional English: English for Academic Studies (EAS)

Course Code Duration  Awarding Body Overseas Applicant 
EAP7 4 to 6 months Internal & EDI Jan/Apr/July/Sept

English for Academic Studies (EAS)

This qualification contributes to the Government’s Skills for Life initiative by providing assessment of ESOL which is designed around the standards for adult literacy and the ESOL Core Curriculum. It is designed to cover the standards and curriculum with sufficient range, breadth and depth to properly reflect the use of the English language for academic purposes, appropriate to the needs of the student groups and the National Qualifications Framework at Level 2.

Learning and teaching

To ensure maximum relevance to the target group, the qualification is based on five life skills contexts which operate as themes for learning English and which are generic across the levels of this qualification. The content and range of coverage will be adapted to be appropriate to learners at each level.

The five life-skills contexts are:

  • Connections and relationships
  • Time and money
  • At home and in the community
  • Rights and responsibilities
  • Personal development

Each of the contexts:

  • is subdivided at each level (e.g. Entry 1), addressing all communication modes at all times, i.e. speaking and listening, reading and writing, thereby providing continuous opportunity for consolidation of all skills, as well as fostering independent management
  • enables development and use of language in situational cultural contexts, thereby expanding range of correct usage and empowering the candidate in his/her management of culturally bound activities
  • addresses the same context at different levels (e.g. Level 1, , Level 2) thereby providing for multi-level, mixed ability classrooms
  • enables use of real-life material as learning resources
  • enables independent management
  • enables development of academic skills, e.g. research, analysis, for progression into employment, vocational, further and higher education

Award

LCM's Certificate in English for Academic Studies (EAS) and EDI's Certificate in ESOL (Skills for Life) Level 2 will be awarded to candidates who successfully complete the learning outcomes and assessments.

Duration: Depend on the invidiuals ability: Generally 4 or 6 months, full-time.
Fee: £1000.00
