New kit for third sector
LSIS has developed a new toolkit.
LSIS has developed a new toolkit, designed to support voluntary and community organisations to respond to the literacy, language, communication and numeracy skills needs of their service users, staff and volunteers.
The toolkit is directed mainly to those voluntary and community organisations which are not currently mainstream providers of education and training, and whose specialism’s are outside the formal education sector.
The features of the toolkit provide guidance and resources which will help you to:
explore how Literacy, Language and Numeracy can help the people in your organisation achieve their goals; review your organisation's starting points, including recognising what contribution you already make to this agenda; create an action plan suited to your organisation; use some of the tools and ideas available to develop your practice; where relevant, to start formalising provision by providing accredited courses; see how this work links with other policies and priorities relevant to you.
Further information can be found on the Excellence Gateway.
