Access to Higher Education

Question

I am going to apply for an Access course, possibly in English, maybe Education and Teaching next year, hoping to start in September '09.

Im thinking (rather early, i know!) about childcare etc, but i cant find any information about how many hours/days you need to be in actual class orientated lessons.

If you are doing an Access course this year, could you post up your timetable so i can get an idea of what i am letting myself in for LOL and what sort of childcare i will need to be thinking of.

I understand that all timetables are different, but it would just be nice to get some sort of idea about the hours involved in ANY access course.

Any other information about these courses, particularly the ones I'm interested in, would be very much appreciated.

Thank you in advance x

Can.,t answer however it could be worth asking at some of the colleges you are interested in about sample timetables and if the offer on-site or subsidised childcare.
