THE VCS HUB: This is the Learning Exchange database holding profiles of voluntary and community sector organisations offering extra-curricular activities.

Voluntary and community sector (VCS) organisations offeing extra-curricular activities to pupils aged 5 to 19 can register on the Learning Exchange database (the VCS Hub).
 
This gives organisations a web profile, which schools can find by using the VCS search engine.

VCS Hub members also have access to the Learning Exchange blogging facilities and can use the forums.

To register on the VCS Hub you will need to complete a short quality checklist. The registration process takes place in two stages. It will be completed once applicants have completed and returned a short quality checklist. The aim of the quality checklist is to reassure schools about the organisations they may commission to offer their pupils services or activities.

If you would like to know more about the VCS Hub and what it offers, please send us an email.

Important note: Disclaimer   While organisations on the VCS Hub have completed the Learning Exchange quality checklist, responsibility for ensuring that their policies and procedures are appropriate, current and in line with all safeguarding and legal requirements, lies with the commissioners of activities - for example, schools.
