ProjectsMerstham Millennium SuccessFollowing a very successful 10-week computer course at Furzefield School in Merstham, delivered as part of the European Social Fund 'Building Bridges' project mentioned below, a bid was submitted to the Merstham Millennium Trust to sustain these classes and offer further courses to local residents. This was successful meaning that free 8-week beginners and Improvers groups commenced in January 2008, helping learners get to grips with using a computer, word processing and using the Internet to send emails and find information. Surrey Lifelong Learning Partnership has also worked with Surrey Care Trust and Chrysalis Parenting to run well-received 'Managing Your Money' and 'Learning Through Storysacks' courses at the school. Elvis ... Has Left the Fete!
Over 500 people attended a Community Learning Fete presented by East Surrey Community Learning Partnership in conjunction with Family Learning Week, 2005. The event, held at Reigate College, offered more than 40 hands-on activities to families and members of the community (including a visit from Elvis!) The event was sponsored by Surrey County Council and more than 20 members of the East Surrey Community Learning Partnership provided valuable resources such as presenters, volunteers, the venue, equipment and committee planning members.

Transportation and cost have always been a barrier to learning for residents of Merstham, many of whom do not have access to a vehicle and find it difficult to financially access learning opportunities. The East Surrey CLP have supported the creation of a new Community Centre on the Merstham High Street which would offer free learning opportunities to residents in a convenient and central location. Once the building work is completed (aiming for Summer 2006) a variety of CLP providers have offered to put learning programmes in place. Improving Health Outcomes in East SurreyEast Surrey CLP is pleased to partner with Connexions Surrey and secondary schools in Tandridge and Reigate & Banstead to help reduce the instances of smoking in young people. The CLP is facilitating the implementation of support groups for young smokers aged 13-19 which will help to educate, motivate and encourage young people to quit. These support groups have been successful in Western Surrey and the CLP is excited to promote their creation in the East. It is expected that the support groups will be introduced during the 2006/07 academic year. Bright Horizons for East Surrey Students |
Local Intelligence ReportThis report (updated twice annually) contains intelligence gathered by the Community Learning Adviser such as statistics, maps and other research to define local learning needs, a description of current provision available to meet that need, information on CLP projects and how CLP activities link into the Local Strategic Partnership of each Borough or District Council. Learner NeedsThe Learner Voice Network (a sub group of Surrey Lifelong Learning Partnership) commissioned a consultation with adult learners in the East Surrey Community Learning Partnership area in 2003. The aim of the research was to enable the Partnership to tap into the views of those that changes to provision are designed to benefit.
