The Youth Literacies Network is being launched at an event in Leicester on 2 February. It will provide an opportunity to hear from practitioners, take part in discussions, review recent national findings and share expertise and experience to develop practice further.
The network will meet three times a year in locations across England and be supported by an email group and e-bulletin, centrally serviced by YALP, a joint initiative of The National Youth Agency and National Institute of Adult and Continuing Education.
Bethia McNeil, YALP project officer, said: "This new network recognises learning as social practice and will embrace a wide range of personal, social and educational skills and abilities - reading, writing, speaking and listening, number work, thinking and feeling, interpersonal communication and behaviour."
