Dear Learner,
Thank you for your interest in the Learning and Enterprise College - we hope you will join us for a fulfilling and enjoyable experience. We are an Adult and Community Learning College, and providing education, skills and training to the local community and its residents is at the heart of what we do. Our courses are planned with learners in mind, with a range of start and finish times to enable you to learn around your own personal life. We are a part of the Children's Services Directorate of the London Borough of Bexley and are funded by the Greater London Authority and Department for Education. I am very proud to say that LECB is inclusive. We value diversity, encourage openness and trust. We seek to improve the opportunities for staff and learners. Our learners have great opportunities to develop their confidence and skills and I hope that you will find a culture here where everyone feels like they belong. Whether you are a returning learner, or this is your first time with us, you will find excellent support from our well qualified, enthusiastic and committed team of tutors, learning support assistants and support staff. Your experience and voice are important so let us know how we can further improve our offer to you. I look forward to welcoming you to the College. |
