A chance to learn on your doorstep

A new adult learning centre is to be built on the site of the former Mackets Lane primary school in Halewood.

The Halewood Adult Education Centre Annexe will provide four teaching rooms and a hall for sports and arts activities for local people.

The Learning and Skills Council gave £1m to Knowsley Family and Community Education service to develop the facility.

Cllr Graham Wright, Knowsley’s Cabinet Member for Children and Family Services, said: “Once again, Knowsley is leading the way in the educational field.

“This annexe will give the local community the chance to get involved in all sorts of new educational opportunities.

“It will also provide them with new sports, computer and arts facilities, so it’s a real bonus for this area of Halewood.”

Work on the annexe is expected to begin within the next couple of months and courses will be available from next summer.
