If your child attends a school who is already part of Children’s University then it is good news! They can get started today.
All of our schools are now using CU Online (our new digital platform that’s a fun, safe and secure online space for participants to record what they’re doing} and your child can be allocated with a username and password to upload any activities that they have completed and see all the activities that are available at school as well as in both your local area and across the country.
Speak to your school if you are not sure how to get started.
Family Membership
If your child attends a school that is not currently in membership or you are a Home Educator and you would like your child be part of Children’s University, don’t worry you can still join The Children’s University.
New Forest CU Family Membership
This membership is open to EHE children living in the New Forest and children who attend a school in the New Forest and Southampton, which isn’t currently a subscribing school. If you are living outside of this area, you will be able to join if we are your nearest Children’s University, check here
It’s simple! Like all children and young people in the New Forest, to collect Children’s University credits at learning destinations, each child will receive a Passport to Learning. Our annual membership fee covers the cost of administering the scheme, creating their award certificates and badges, generating their personalised learning profiles which accompany the awards and also their attendance at a Gold Award ceremony when they reach 100 credits.
Each child will receive a passport to Learning and find out about all our learning destinations. Each family will receive regular newsletters by email.
