The Foundation in Business Programme

This exclusive pathway programme is designed for students who have finished secondary school at home, but do not meet the requirements for direct entry to university. The course features a Pearson BTEC University Profile Information qualification that is recognised by 95% of UK universities, many of whom accept it as the only qualification required, together with a minimum level of English.

• Our Foundation in Business is based on the BTEC Level 3 National Diploma. Like A-levels, this is a qualification that carries up to 112 UCAS points, and is recognised by most universities as meeting some or all of their entry requirements for undergraduate business degrees giving you a wider choice of universities to apply to
• Get a stand-alone BTEC Level 3 National Qualification that is recognised by both universities and businesses
• Apply directly to university through the UCAS system or get progression with a Twin partner university after successfully completing your course.
• Free university counselling and application assistance
• Free IELTS exam included with all English for University programmes of 10 weeks + and with the University Foundation

English language courses, including IELTS Preparation and English for IELTS, are available at the school. For students who need to improve their level of English prior to starting their Foundation in Business, a pre-sessional programme of either English for University or an English language programme is available.

Social and after school activities

Twin offers a full programme of optional after-school activities many which are free or low cost. We also arrange excursions within the UK to cities such as Oxford, Cambridge, and Brighton, or weekend trips to European cities such as Paris and Amsterdam. University Tours are also open to all students and are free for Foundation in Business students.

Twin has a busy social programme with lots to do after class and on the weekends. University Tours in London and the UK help students to become familiar with the differences and similarities between schools, and to develop an understanding of the right university for them. Tours include a combination of guided campus tours, question and answer with admission staff, working lunches in a university canteen, and experiencing social events on campus (included in the Twin Foundation for Business programme).
