Working closely with the Learning and Skills Council (Greater Merseyside) we are committed to integrating approaches to the developing 14-19 curriculum, lifelong learning strategies and skills development in the local and regional workforce.
Since 2000, when Wirral Learning Partnership began operating, all the major providers of education and training in Wirral - Schools/Wirral Metropolitan College/Birkenhead 6th Form College/ Wirral Training Providers/Wirral Lifelong learning Service - have been working together to establish and sustain a culture of lifelong learning that enables all members of the community to reach their full potential.
Following a strategic review of Wirral Learning Partnership during Spring 2005, a strategic plan has been developed that includes a restructuring of Wirral Learning Partnership. The new structure allows representation from other thematic partnerships. It has been agreed that a representative from the Thriving Local Economy Group will join WLP Board. This will strengthen cross partnership work. The new structure also formalises the link between WLP and the emerging Children and Young People’s Service.
