This report, commissioned by the GLA and produced by the Learning and Work Institute, aims to identify barriers to participation and achievement in basic English and maths training (at level 2 and below) and highlight examples of good practice that can be used to support London’s Adult Education Budget (AEB) providers to deliver improved social and economic outcomes for learners.
This includes recommendations for providers, and the GLA as the commissioning authority, based on the different stages of the learner journey including, engagement and recruitment, motivation and retention, progression and achievement, and some cross-cutting recommendations that run through each of the stages.
