As 2014 commences, it is a time to reflect on the past and look forward to the future. There is always something new to learn and Birmingham Adult Education Service has many new courses starting in January. In Acocks Green village we are lucky to  have the Stone Hall Adult Education Centre, (Warwick Road, opposite St Mary’s Church) which hosts many different opportunities to learn new skills for pleasure or to gain qualifications. Courses range from sewing classes, ESOL, computers, singing, pottery, Great Women in History, Computerised Accounts, job searching and interview skills and lots more!  If you are in receipt of benefits then some of the courses may be free.

Birmingham City Council have produced two course programmes, dividing the city into North and South. This lists all the courses available starting in 2014. To see the South programme, which includes Stone Hall centre, click here, or call into the centre when it re-opens on 2nd January 2014
