Foundation Programme

I've picked out specific areas from the latest FP Curriculum.

Foundation docs would be able to add attending our course as an Additional Achievement on their ePortfolio and link this to the areas of the curriculum listed below (they need curriculum links like these for their end-of-year review). Note that if we provide a PDF Certificate this linking process will be easier.
