Community Learning and Development
Community Learning and Development describes a way of working
with people in their communities, either in a group or on a one to
one basis.
In Perth & Kinross, Community Learning and Development is
delivered across Perth & Kinross through the Youth Services
Team, the Adult Learning Team and the Community Capacity
Team.
Three national priorities have been developed for Community
Learning and Development. They are as follows:
Achievement Through Learning for Adults
Raising standards of achievement in
learning for adults through community-based activities
Achievement Through Learning for Young People
Engaging with
young people to facilitate their personal, social and
educational development and enable them to gain a voice, influence
and a place in society.
Achievement Through Building Community Capacity
Building Community Capacity supports people to be confident,
skilled and active community members.
We build community capacity by enabling individuals, groups
and communities to develop the confidence, understanding and
skills required to influence decision-making and service
delivery.
Perth & Kinross is divided into 6 Community Learning and
Development areas:
