On January 17th the Director of Culture and Leisure Services announced (in a low key, internal kind of way) that Bristol's Adult Learning Service would receive no funding in the 2008/9 budget.
Cuts of £180,000 will result in the end of adult education in St. Paul's, Knowle West and Southmead, and will place the continuation of the service at Stoke Lodge at risk.
What do readers of Trym Tales think of this proposal? The proposal to cut provision at St Pauls seems particularly strange considering the brand new community learning centre that has been open less than two years on the corner of Grosvenor Road.
