Alternative Learning Pathways Project
What is Alternative Learning Pathways?
Alternative Learning Pathways is an educational programme catering for young people between the ages of 12 and 16 who are out of school or at risk of being out of school. The programme supports young people by trying to meet their educational, social and personal needs.
