Tees Achieve (Adult Education Service)

Tees Achieve offers a wide range of learning and apprenticeship training opportunities for adult and post 16 learners across Stockton and the surrounding area. Whether you are a new or returning learner you will be made very welcome.

Front entrance Billingham Community Centre One of the most often heard comments we receive is “It’s nothing like school”. This is intentional and we teach in a much more informal way to accommodate the needs of adults. If you are unsure about which course to take, we can offer you independent advice to help you make the right choices.

We take great pride in having a truly diverse range of learners who are united by their enjoyment of activities such as stained glass design, family history or computing skills, to name but a few. We offer great teaching and support to help on your learning journey and aid progression in life and work.

Alongside the community courses we offer programmes for foundation learning, apprenticeships and assistance for those looking to get into employment.
