Pledge 3: Encouraging learning, leisure and creativity in Salford

We will raise education and skill levels and further enhance cultural and leisure opportunities.

This will be achieved by:

• Raising the educational attainment of children, young people and adults in the city
• Providing better quality schools and leisure facilities
• Promoting independence for people through education, training and employment
• Encouraging more people to participate in a range of sport, culture and learning activities
• Promoting the city for major cultural, sporting and leisure events

In 2010/11 we will be focusing our efforts on:

1. Ensuring that young people in all areas have the same opportunities to learn
2. Making sure that we make full use of opportunities arising from MediaCityUK
3. Increasing sports, leisure and cultural activities
