A Level applicants only: Don’t forget to complete your bridging tasks!
During Welcome Day, you will have been asked to complete ‘Bridging Tasks’ over the summer. These are simple activities designed to introduce key concepts and help you get a head start before you join us on Campus in September.
You can use this link to head to our Bridging Tasks webpage, and you can also access the tasks via the Applicant Hub: A Level Bridging Tasks – Cheshire College South & West
Getting started is easy:
- Visit the Bridging Tasks webpage.
- Select each of your chosen A Level subjects.
- Download the relevant materials.
- Complete all tasks before your first day at College.
Your lecturers will refer to these activities during your first lessons, so it’s important to complete them before you arrive in September.
