Enrollment on an Inspire Learning study programme is available at any time during the year with Study Programmes delivered from a total of nine bases across Nottinghamshire.

Ian Bond, Inspire Learning Director said: “The 2019/20 academic year GCSE results build on the previous years’ excellent performance and exceeded national pass rates. 64% of our students achieved a grade 4 or above in Maths (the national benchmark is 33%) and 49% achieved a grade 4 or above in English (the national benchmark is 41%).

"We offer one to one tutor support and our group sizes are small. Plus, young people earn a bursary of up to £100 per month which does not affect child benefit, so I’d encourage anyone not sure about joining us to come along to meet some of our friendly tutors and get more information.”

Inspire Learning is an Ofsted registered ‘good provider,’ is a winner of the Tes FE award 2020 for Adult and Community Learning Provider of the Year and was also shortlisted for the Tes FE Outstanding GCSE Resits Provision Award.
