KMC-IRS-064-006B - Kirklees Adult and Community Learning

Tender description

The main purpose of the Community Learning (CL) fund is to reach disadvantaged communities and individuals, to enable them to develop new skills, participate in learning and to progress towards further learning and/or sustainable employment. Community Learning supports wider government policies on localism, social justice, stronger families, digital inclusion and social mobility. It is recognised that the community and voluntary sector can provide some of the most innovative ways of providing learning opportunities to groups that have traditionally been hard to engage. The CL funding comes from the Educations and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) and is subcontracted by Kirklees Council. Proposals were invited by the Council of the Borough of Kirklees (the "Council") from shortlisted Capable Delivery Partners currently on Category 2 - Training for Volunteers of the Council's Dynamic Purchasing System for the provision of education, training, employment and lifelong learning (REF:KMCIRS-064).
