People across Swindon are being asked to shape the future of further education.

Swindon Learning and Skills Council is encouraging anyone with an interest in education to come along to a meeting at the Steam Museum early on Thursday.

The meeting, called a Strategic Area Review, will examine what is required for the future to build on the strengths of current provision and improve areas of weakness.

The outcome of the review will be published next year in a plan for post-16 learning and skills across England.

It aims to listen and learn with a view to improving post-16 learning and skills and providing the opportunity for everyone's views to be heard.

The Swindon Strategic Area Review starts at 8.30am and a continental-style breakfast will be available. For more information call Swindon Learning and Skills Council on 01793 608079.
