Learning Destinations -Collect credits!

Passport to Learning
There are lots of fun and exciting activities taking place outside of normal school hours in different places across Sheffield where children and young people can collect learning credits. These credits will be added to the ones children collect in school to earn Children’s University Awards. To collect these credits, they need a Passport to Learning. These cost £2 and will be available to purchase at Sheffield libraries and some Learning Destinations.


There are a few golden rules when it comes to the Passport to Learning to make sure your CU credits count! They are:

1. Learning Destination - the Passport to Learning can only be used at activities that take place at CU approved activity providers.If someone is not on the list, tell them about us, and us about them!

2. Consent sticker - make sure the consent sticker is signed by a parent/carer before you take your Passport to any Learning Destination

3. Register - your name MUST be put on a register at a Learning Destination in Sheffield. They send it to us, and without it, we can't award your credits!

4. Diary Sheet - if you visit a Learning Destination beyond Sheffield you need to complete and return a diary sheet and we'll know to award your credits. You can download one here:www.sheffield.gov.uk/cu

Look out for the Children’s University logo and Learning Destination posters!  
There are also Learning Destinations across the country, the CU Trust have details of these.

PLEASE NOTE: Sheffield Children's University is only allowed to track the credits of pupils who attend Sheffield schools (or live in a Sheffield postcode if they are home-educated).
