How will the ALC work with the wider community?
Each ALC will be at the heart of a learning zone and will be supported by up to 10 Primary Learning Centres which will replace our traditional primary schools and they in turn will be linked to Children’s Centres. Both the ALC and some Primary Learning Centres will offer full service or extended provision which will enable swift and easy access to a range of support services for students and their families. Many parts of the ALC facilities such as the Learning Resource Centre (library), sports facilities and cafe will be available to the community as appropriate during the day and evening. Adult education facilities will be available as will a range of learning opportunities. Whatever stage of life you are in and whether or not your children attend the ALC there will be a facility or a learning opportunity for you. The ALCs will aim to be the beating heart of the communities they serve. Will The Needs Of Those With Special Educational Needs (SEN) Or Disabilities Be Catered For In The N
