Working to the standards below, Community Learning and Development seeks to make West Lothian a place where everyone matters and every person should contribute to and benefit from, the community in which they live.
Achievement through learning for adults
Raising standards of achievement in learning for adults through community-based lifelong learning opportunities. These will incorporate the core skills of literacy, numeracy, communications, working with others, problem-solving and information communications technology (ICT).
Achievement through building Community Capacity

Achievement through learning for young people
