5. Improve Progression Progression might mean something different for each learner. Find out what your learners want to do next and plan accordingly Examples of progression -Joining or setting up a club or group that does the same/similar activity – badminton club, art club etc. -Thinking about looking for a different job -Getting nearer to finding a job -Moving on to a course that offers a qualifications -Taking careers advice -Volunteering in local community with new skill -Joining a timebank -Learning to teach the subject Insert photo

6. Improve Independence, Confidence, reduce Isolation As with all the Wider Impact areas, it is important to understand the personal goals your learners bring with them to your lessons. Learners’ personal goals may be subtle, they may not wish to share them with others in the group and in some cases learners might not be able to identify exactly what their goal is. Some areas we know our learners have found wider impacts to their independence, confidence or feeling less isolated include -Computing - Getting on line helping to be in contact with family, friends, local services -Art/Cookery -Developing a skill in something, now being able to show someone else how to do it -Any subject - Sometimes simply by getting to class, a learner can help prove to themselves that they can do something independently Insert photo e.g. Older learners getting on line, cooking/eating together
