This toolkit is designed as a companion output to the final report of the ‘New Curriculum for Difficult Times’ project. The project ran from November 2012 to April 2013.
The project funded six providers of Adult and Community learning to run action research projects to design curriculum responses to current difficult times experienced by the communities they serve.
The work focused on how provision might become more locally driven. The projects also explored diversifying funding sources; targeting money more effectively; and designing services with - and around the needs of communities. This toolkit will provide you with some tools to help make provision more locally driven and community led.
