Breckland Angling Coaching Club
Alternative learning – youth and immigrant
Breckland Angling Coaching Club, was a club without a core coaching team. The director of the Club, an Education Officer with the GMB Union, recommended seven people for the Academy. A number of this team had never gained a qualification. Our on-course ‘Learning Buddy’ programme provided invaluable support.
The Club has a core team, and a number of coaches who had slipped away, returned once the Club had been invigorated. The Club works with local schools and has a community development programme working with groups with English As Second Language.
