Greenwich – the place to learn
Education plays an essential part in the life of the borough – in developing the potential of individuals to raise their aspirations, achieve their full potential, gain employment and provide a skilled workforce for the local economy.
It is high on the agenda for Greenwich to ensure that residents have the knowledge and skills to meet the demands of the local labour market and the new and developing markets across the capital.
The borough is host to a number of internationally renowned educational institutions providing top quality education and research and development projects.
Greenwich Council is committed to helping young people achieve their goals in Greenwich. The challenge for schools is to ensure that young people emerge with a good base of skills, qualifications and attitudes that enable them to compete in the workplace and to reach jobs and occupations that fulfil their potential.
The Council also continues to support an extensive programme of adult learning through a contract with Greenwich Community College and links with the University of Greenwich.
