The Lincolnshire Children's University works with schools, visitor attractions and high street retailers, and a whole host of other individuals and organisations, to provide exciting and innovative learning activities and experiences outside normal school hours.

​

If you go to school in Lincolnshire and you are between 5 and 14 years of age, you could be working towards a National Children’s University Award by collecting stamps in a Passport to Learning.

​

A Passport To Learning has been created, in which 7 to 14 year old children - and 5 and 6 year olds with grown-ups - collect 'stamps' for their hours of accredited learning. This contributes to the award of a certificate, encouraging them to access Children's University provision and a wide range of other worthwhile out-of-school-hours learning opportunities.

​

So, for example, suppose you visit a local museum, or a castle on holiday, are learning to play a musical instrument out of school hours, or you belong to an after school club. If your school or the place you go to is signed up as a Children’s University Learning Destination, then you can get your passport stamped there every time you go. When you have enough stamps, you can graduate wearing a cap and gown, just like at a “grown-up” university!
