Planning your event

Starter Section

No idea where to start? Racing the clock? From quick tips to themes to further learning, our online and downloadable planning guide will help you deliver maximum impact events with minimum input. The guide will also make the day go with a bang with its final checklist, and there are also tips to evaluate your day after the Family Learning Festival to ensure it gets better and better! To find out how to link family learning activities to further learning you can download our Discovering New Worlds guide. Please note, since Discovering New Worlds was created there has been changes in terms of national support for learning, skills development and careers advice. Please see our Supporting Further Learning section for more information on current services.
