Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, it explores what lifelong learning is, where learning can and does take place and who is accessing it. Offering a clear overview of the different strands to lifelong learning, the book examines the concept of lifelong learning drawing on key policy initiatives and strategies. Each section outlines the types of individuals who are most likely to access lifelong learning within and across these strands including, for example, migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, unemployed adults, carers and guardians, older age-groups and returning learners. Chapters cover: - adult and community learning; - higher education; - further education; - work-based learning; - prison and probation learning. Including supporting tasks and reflection activities, this textbook will give students a broad understanding of lifelong learning and its role in supporting adults throughout their life both socially and economically. Lifelong Learning in the UK is an essential introductory text for students on undergraduate courses in Education Studies"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aContinuing education$zGreat Britain 606 $aAdult education$zGreat Britain 615 0$aContinuing education 615 0$aAdult education 676 $a374/.941 686 $aEDU000000$aEDU002000$aEDU034000$2bisacsh 700 $aO'Grady$b Anne$c(Educator),$01528231 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786851203321 996 $aLifelong learning in the UK$93771704 997 $aUNINA
