Description

We would like to receive applications from organisations who are interested in providing learning opportunities to adults aged 19 Plus and families across Wokingham Borough, for the academic years 2017 to 2020, subject to ESFA (Education and Skills Funding Agency) funding availability.

We want to work in partnership with commissioned providers who have expertise and access to identified target groups within the Borough. We want to deliver a curriculum which widens participation and supports adults age 19 Plus and families. We want to encourage these adults to learn a new skill, improve their health and well-being and develop their employment skills and attributes. We also want to nurture their return to formal education and learn how to better support their children's learning and development.

Our objective is to create a group of suppliers who are interested and capable of delivering good quality services in this category of educational support.
