Get Sorted and The Children's University.

The Children's University (CU) is holding a "Children's University Graduation" at the Magna Centre on July the 8th, and Get Sorted have been invited to attend a 'provider briefing' to see how it could become a CU provider following a pilot.

Rotherham CU graduates at Sheffield City Hall
 There has already been a graduation ceremony for Rotherham CU graduates. "More than 100 Rotherham children donned their caps and gowns to graduate from a very special university. They became the first to graduate from the Children's University in Rotherham during a ceremony at Sheffield City Hall."

However, the event on the 8th of July, which is expected to attract around 800 people, will be the first "Rotherham Borough Wide Graduation" and it is hoped that it will help build Rotherham Children's University.

"The Children's University is a national organisation that provides 7 to 14 year olds with exciting and innovative learning activities and experiences outside normal school hours. We celebrate achievement and reward participation through our certificates.
Raising children's aspirations is important to us and we aim to develop the understanding that learning can be the satellite navigation to better places in life!"
