QUARTERS at a college for students with learning disabilities have been opened.
The Bungalow, at Connections Campus, in Redcar, is the new home to a vocational and essential life skills course for young adults.
It will teach students how to live independently, through practical, reality-based learning experiences.
Previously a class-based course, the less-formal environment will teach life skills through activities such as gardening, laundry and housekeeping.
It aims to help students develop a range of basic skills including numeracy and literacy, social skills and time management as well as nutrition and personal and organisational skills.
