Welcome to the Professionals section of the Doncaster Learning Gateways site. This part is aimed at those of you who are involved in providing learning and offering information and advice on learning and employment.

The Learning Gateways project is managed by a small team consisting of: Learning Gateways Manager, a Development Manager, Liaison Officers and an Administrator.

The project has been funded through Neighbourhood Renewal Fund (NRF) monies and Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council is the project's accountable body.  The project's initial funds were to cover the period April 06 to end March 08. An extension to the activity has been granted to September 08 and new targets have been negotiated for this phase.

These include the establishment of additional Learning Gateways and more targetted work with individual learners.

The project team will continue to be guided in its major decision making by the Learning Gateways Steering Group which is made up of representatives from key learning related organisations. The project's future and possible linkages to other projects and organisations will be of paramount importance during the project extension period.  

Learning Gateways' activity forms a key element of Doncaster Education City in being able to support a network of Learning Centres which can provide quality advice and support for adult learners and help Doncaster generate a ‘learning culture’.

Learning Gateways are drawn form a variety of different organisations including: community centres, libraries, children's centres, schools, businesses etc.

For more information about Learning Gateways please contact the team at: enquiries@learning-gateways.co.uk or telephone on 01302 300866.
