About This Publication
The government’s support for `extended schools’ will encourage community-based learning – but how does adult learning fit in with the rest of the school’s agenda? What should schools be doing to match what they have to offer to the interests of their community? Who is there to help schools and whom should they be working with? Based on questions and ideas from practitioners, this Lifeline starts with statutory issues, then goes beyond them to look at how a programme can be developed and managed, how quality is judged, and how we can make the most of opening up schools for adults.
