Stoke-on-Trent City Council’s Adult and Community Learning service is moving to Swann House on Boothen Road in Stoke.

The service provides learning opportunities for Stoke-on-Trent residents aged 19 and over. The council says the move will provide improved facilities and a modern learning environment while giving the service room to grow in response to demand.

Learning and employment support in one place

Adult and Community Learning will be based alongside the council’s employment and skills teams. The aim is to allow residents to access education, careers advice and help into work from the same location.

Councillor Sarah Jane Colclough, cabinet member for children’s services, said:

The work our Adult and Community Learning team do is so important, as they provide opportunities for many residents and support them with their ambitions.

Whether it’s improving job prospects or increasing confidence, the service help so many people in the city.

This move to Swann House will ensure more joined up working and improved resources, so this amazing work can continue to prosper and more people can enhance or learn new skills in a supportive environment.

Courses beginning in September

The team is accepting applications for courses beginning in September 2026, including maths and health and wellbeing.

Residents can find further course information through Stoke-on-Trent City Council’s Adult Education service.
