The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the National Adult Learners’ Forum and Scotland’s Learning Partnership on hosting what it considers a series of creative conversations with councillors, MSPs and adult learners in Livingston and across Scotland to highlight the impact of adult learning on communities; recognises what it sees as the good work of local authorities and the voluntary sector in delivering adult learning with disadvantaged groups and communities; understands that there is an old Scottish tradition of supporting education for all, including adult education; calls on politicians of all parties to support adult learning and, in particular non-formal adult learning, which it believes is often the first step for people going back into education after school, and wishes the learners’ forum well as it implements its plans for learner-led projects.
