New Leisure courses introduced!
We’re really excited that our leisure courses are continuing to grow, with several new subjects and classes launching over the coming terms. Thanks to the enthusiasm and feedback from our learners, we’ve been able to broaden our programme in some exciting new directions.
We are thrilled to be introducing Psychology into our course line-up from January, starting with The Psychology of the Criminal Mind, a fascinating look into what drives people to commit crime and how psychologists study criminal behaviour. It’s designed to sit perfectly alongside our Introduction to Forensic Science course and we hope it will be the first in a series of Psychology courses. If you’ve ever wondered why people behave the way they do—or you’re simply curious about the human mind—these courses could be the ideal place to start!
We’re also expanding our History courses after the huge popularity of our Anglo-Saxon History class. Building on that momentum, we’re introducing two new courses for those eager to dive deeper into the past. The Vikings: Raiders, Traders & Explorers will explore who the Vikings really were beyond the myths, while Medieval England: The Norman and Plantagenet Era takes a closer look at one of the most dramatic and influential periods in English history.
Looking ahead to the Summer term, we’ll be running a brand new course called Literature and the Environment. This class explores how writers have engaged with the natural world, from idyllic landscapes to the pressing environmental themes of today. It’s a wonderful opportunity for anyone who enjoys reading, nature, or simply thinking about how the two connect.
We’ve got even more new courses in the pipeline for the Summer, so do keep an eye out—there’s lots to look forward to!
