Clyde Waterfront has developed a range of educational resources
for use in schools. Written by teachers, the plans add value to
curricular topics by providing opportunities for pupils to apply
their learning in a local context. The resources are available on
the Clyde Waterfront Education
website (opens in new window).
The particular emphasis is on delivering a 'Curriculum for
Excellence' by giving pupils real life learning experiences and
developing skills for life and work. A major input also is
that it addresses the requirements of the 'Determined to Succeed'
enterprise programme where all schools need business partners to
participate in educational projects linked to the world of
work.
Each of the local authorities has an Enterprise Development
Officer who will assist with linking businesses to schools and
identifying ways they can work together.
