SALFORD QUAYS SUPPORTED INTERNSHIP What Do We Expect from the Students? SALFORD QUAYS SUPPORTED INTERNSHIP What do we expect from the students? Able to use a Always on time The student MUST be motivated to mobile phone work. Travel Prepared for Independently Professional the day Where are we? Our classroom is in The Greenhouse. It is less than a 5 minute walk from the MediaCityUK tram stop, behind Salford University building and opposite Booths Supermarket. How to find us? We want all of our students to be as independent as they can be. This includes travelling to the classroom in the morning and to your placements. You can plan your journey to us by following this link https://my.tfgm.com/#/planner/ Step 1: Enter your home postcode Step 2: Enter our postcode (M50 2EQ) Step 3: Select ‘Arrive by’ in the dropdown box Step 4: Change the date to when you will be travelling and the time to 08:45 so you are early for college. Step 5: Select the method of travel you want to use. I will use the tram for this example. Step 6: Read the instructions and give it a go with support if you need to. How do you get here by tram? The Metrolink is one of the best ways to get to us as there are now THREE different stops on THREE different lines. The MediaCityUK line (Orange), Intu Trafford Centre line (Red) or the Eccles line (Light Blue). The nearest stop is MediaCityUK and as this is the end of the line everyone gets off the tram. Broadway on the Eccles line and Imperial War Museum on the Intu Trafford Centre line are nearby too. We advise that you do some practice journeys with your family so you are familiar with them before you start. How to get here by bus (Number 50) ■ The number 50 https://tfgm.com/public-transport/bus/routes/50-east-didsbury is one of two bus services that run all day to Media City / Salford Quays ■ It runs from East Didsbury straight into the centre of Manchester and then onto Media City /Salford Quays. If you live in East Didsbury, Burnage, the Fallowfield / Levenshulme border, the Longsight / Rusholme border or near the MRI this could be the bus for you. ■ Advantages. One bus all the way. Runs about every 5 minutes. Terminates at Salford Quays. ■ Disadvantages. Takes quite a long time. Can be delayed in the town centre. Can be very busy How to get here by bus (Number 53) • The number 53 https://tfgm.com/public-transport/bus/routes/53-cheetham-hill is the other service that runs all day to Media City / Salford Quays. • It runs from Cheetham Hill all the way round Manchester. If you live in Longsight, Rusholme, Hulme, Old Trafford or near the centre of Salford this could be the bus for you. • Advantages. One bus all the way. • Disadvantages. Only runs about once every 30 minutes, Takes quite a long time. Can be delayed because it crosses over many busy road. Does not terminate at Salford Quays. What is the classroom like? We meet in the classroom 9am – 1030am Monday to Thursday and we will deliver sessions aimed at getting you ready for work. We cover Maths, English, ICT, Employability and Personal Development. Image of the classroom This includes topics like timekeeping, dealing with problems, presenting ourselves in the right way, health and safety, managing money and lots of others.
