Supporting Students in your Department

What is in-sessional provision?

A core area of expertise within the Warwick Foundation Studies (WFS) department is English for Academic Purposes (EAP). EAP is an academic discipline which focuses on developing the academic literacies necessary for academic study in the UK Higher Education setting. In-sessional provision focuses on developing these literacies while students are undertaking their academic studies. EAP can be delivered on a spectrum ranging from generic academic language and skills to literacies, language and skills that are highly specific to a given discipline. The most successful EAP provision exists in collaboration with the students’ home department.

The EAP team situated within WFS has many years’ experience teaching EAP to pre-UG, UG, PGT and PGR students (whether classed as international or home students). Many of the team also have experience of involvement in teacher training.

The WFS in-sessional provision offer includes existing provision available to all students, as well as bespoke provision available by arrangement.
