Plumb Learning CIC
In the heart of every child lies the potential for greatness, a spark waiting to be ignited by the right kind of learning and encouragement.
Plumb Learning was born from this belief, founded by a dedicated mother of three Hayley, with a vision to create inclusive, hands-on learning opportunities that go beyond the traditional classroom.
Our journey is not just about teaching plumbing; it’s about opening doors to social mobility, building confidence, and reigniting a passion for learning in young people.
Integrating a range of hands-on vocational skills, PSHE based workshops and creative activities designed to build confidence, develop skills crucial to independent living and improve employability. The young people will participate in a mixture of independent and small group projects. Through a curriculum of learning opportunities designed to engage the entire body they will see improvements in both their physical and mental health whilst increasing their employability skills and specialist vocabulary. The course offers a safe space for young people to connect, develop new interests and build healthy relationships. Based around a series of small achievable goals it is flexible to adapt to the needs of each individual student without the need for separation.
The activities will fall within the following subjects:
Tiling, plumbing, entrepreneurship, professional skills and attitudes, structural engineering, conservation skills, independence, challenging assumptions, identifying skills and qualities, understanding rights and responsibilities and design thinking.
