Connect outcome - Education and learning

Inspiring learners, transforming learning, strengthening partnerships

What communities told us:

  • Improve health and wellbeing to enable children and families to flourish.
  • Provide a rich and stimulating curriculum that helps raise standards in literacy and numeracy.
  • Support children and young people to develop their skills for learning, life and work.
  • Adult learning should be affordable and accessible to older adults. This is good for mental health and physical health and making friendships.
  • Digital training and accessible learning with opportunities to gain skills are important for adults and young people alike.
  • Life skills teaching is required – money management, mortgages and use of credit. The skills that should be promoted are IT/Digital skills as well as interpersonal.
  • Create an environment for communities to fall down, learn and get back up and keep going

What success will look like:

  • Improved attainment in literacy and numeracy
  • Improved attendance
  • Improved positive destinations for our young people
