Scarborough and North Yorkshire Children's University
The Children’s University (CU) is a national charitable scheme which aims to raise children’s confidence, attainment and attitude to learning by rewarding them for engaging in extra-curricular learning. It does this by encouraging children to take part in learning activities outside of normal class times, both inside and outside school. By doing so, the scheme helps children to identify, develop and celebrate their own strengths, skills and talents; and to connect those concepts to the real world. Scarborough & North Yorkshire’s Children’s University is managed by the University of Hull. Find out more about Scarborough & North Yorkshire Children's University.
