YHA – A Great Place to Learn

Filed under: Guest Articles,News @ 5:09 pm

Many of our Youth Hostels have been striving to achieve Learning Outside the Classroom (LOtC) accreditation and now YHA Coalbrookdale and YHA Coalport have been audited and passed with flying colours.  This is due, in no small part, to the hard work and high standards maintained by Cath, the hostel manager, and Kelly, the Education manager, and the Ironbridge teams.

The Quality Badge recognises that both sites offer high quality learning experiences, manage risk effectively and are responsive to the needs of young people.  It is awarded to a provider that has pledged to engage in an on-going process to sustain high quality learning outside the classroom.

The badge will aid schools, teachers and other leaders plan school trips that meet their needs and the needs of young people.

This means that we can confidently market our Learn 4 Real packages and assure customers that they can expect consistently high quality school trip experiences. A further 10 sites are preparing for their audits.

Based on demand to date, we will be expanding Learn 4 Real and expect to have up to 25 sites delivering packages by September 2011, right at the heart of our vision to reach out and enhance the lives of all young people.
