People with Learning Difficulties
bulletBrightening Lives : What adults with learning difficulties say about learning
bulletHow PCDL can best serve learners with learning difficulties? (2006-07)
bulletRevolving Doors [PDF file].
This report sets out the findings of a study that set out to analyse the progression of adults with learning difficulties. The recently launched national strategy for LSC funded provision for learners with learning difficulties and/or disabilities, Learning for Living and Work (LSC, 2006), identifies learner progression and transition as a key component. Systematic progression for adults with learning difficulties is vitally important. Without such progression learners’ skills and knowledge remain untested and under developed; independence and successful personal growth remain limited. In short, learners fail to become all that they are capable of becoming – and that includes making a contribution to the economy and the community.
