Literacy and Numeracy Action Plan is one of only four in Scotland
to have been assessed as ‘excellent’ in a report by
the Scottish Executive.
The Comhairle’s Arts and Leisure Committee heard today
that the Scottish Executive recently carried out a mid year evaluation
of the Action Plan for the Western Isles, assessing the progress
made by the Community Learning Strategy Partnership.
Arts and Leisure Chairman Cllr. Malcolm Graham described the
assessment as ‘very good news’ and congratulations
were passed to the Comhairle staff involved.
Scottish Executive funding for Literacy and Numeracy has been
extended to March 2006.
