My DLP is an online meeting place for everyone in our Dawlish Learning Partnership.
We want to celebrate achievement, announce new opportunities, share ideas and resources, ask for help in learning, find partners and funding for new projects, in fact pretty much anything that helps to put lifelong learning where it belongs, at the heart of our community.
You can also subscribe to receive new My DLP posts by email. This will make sure that you don’t miss out on anything!
