3. SCUTREA
SCUTREA was established in 1971 as a network of adult educators involved in researching and teaching adults. Initially members were drawn from university adult education departments throughout the United Kingdom. Today, with the broad spread of lifelong learning activities and international interest in adult education the membership is diverse which makes our annual international conferences very interesting and lively events. We have regular and close contact with colleagues from Australia, Canada and the US, and individual members provide strong links with the European Studies for Research in Adult Education. Here

SOPA exists to give a strong voice to older people about their concerns and experience of life in Scotland, and also raises issues about inequalities of age.
WEA
“A better world - equal, democratic and just; through adult education the WEA challenges and inspires individuals, communities and society”
The WEA organises its education provision and identifies its impact across four key themes. They are Culture, Health and Wellbeing, Community Engagement and Employability. The themes are equally important and represent some of the most fundamental needs of people living in Britain’s diverse communities. Each theme provides a context within which the WEA offers its wide and varied curriculum. Over time it is anticipated that most tutors who teach a subject regularly will have taught their subject using each of the four themes.

WEA expects that in all our classes the following principles are followed: WEA Approach to Education and Learning www.wea.org.uk The course subject is explored in line with learning outcomes and developed in the context of WEA themes. One or more of the themes are reflected in planning and teaching of courses. Life skills, including maths, English and digital, are developed and encouraged in the context of the subject area. Students are encouraged to engage critically and actively around their study. Equality, diversity and inclusion are embedded in everything we do.
