North West City Learning Centre (CLC) is one of six CLCs contributing to Birmingham’s Excellence in Cities (EiC) programme. It is a state-of-the-art ICT Centre providing on-site and anytime-anywhere learning opportunities for schools and the wider community. City Learning Centres are a key element in the Government’s drive to raise standards in major cities.

The Centre works closely with schools and other educational organisations to enhance learning experiences through the sharing of good practice, the development of innovative curriculum programmes and by providing training. Staff at the Centre work with the LEA and community groups to extend learning provision across Birmingham via it’s mobile units and for the local community.

Assisting schools with the development of ICT strategies and policies is becoming an increasingly important role as the Government’s e-learning objectives reach the forefront of the educational agenda.
