We're on the move!

As many of you will have heard, the Adult Learning team will be moving out of The Learning Shop in August.

We will have a two week shut down from Monday 1st August to get things moved and organised in our new locations. We will be ready and raring to go in the following places from Monday 15th August.

John Pollock Centre

Our new base will be at The John Pollock Centre in Mainholm Road, Ayr where you will find our admin team and most of our tutor/student pairings will also work from here.

Lochside Learning Centre

We will also be working from the computing suite in Lochside Learning Centre, Lochside Road, Ayr where all our computing classes will be held in addition to our literacy job search club.





If you're not sure where these new locations are or how to get there, please ask any member of staff in at The Learning Shop, we have access to online maps and bus timetables to help you.


Please feel free to pop in and visit us when we are in our new locations. You'll find the same friendly faces and, as always, the offer of a cuppa! We'd love to see you!

Tutor Awards

A joint awards ceremony was recently held in The Learning Shop to celebrate the success of our newest tutors and also the progression of some of our other tutors.

Volunteer Tutor Training Awards

Our latest group of tutors to complete the Volunteer Tutor Training course were awarded their certificates from the Adult Learning team and these were presented to them by Councillor Margaret Toner.

Professional Development Awards

Our current literacy tutors were given an option of working with Ayrshire College tutor Kate Sangster to take their tutoring to a higher level. These tutors worked towards their Professional Development Award (PDA) in Adult Literacies. These awards came from Ayrshire College and were also presented by Councillor Margaret Toner.


The Adult Learning Team would like to thank everyone for their hard work and commitment given in each of these courses and look forward to working with you all in the future.

Congratulations!!

Gail

Congratulations to all!
