City Learning Centres

Transforming Teaching and Learning

City Learning Centres (CLCs) have a major impact on learning in city schools by providing a focus for the very best in education for young people.

By providing outstanding local facilities, Newcastle CLC aims to improve education standards and skill levels, so promoting employment opportunities and countering social exclusion. The aim of CLCs is to enhance the learning opportunities of pupils in our major cities.
