Bolton is rightly proud that it is now one of the country’s newest university towns.

And on these pages you’ll find a wealth of information about education services in the town for people aged nought to ninety.

There’s information for parents of pre-school age children such as childcare and nurseries, through what you need to do when your children reach primary and secondary school age.

For the over-16s there’s information about continuing in education or what else they can do such as training.

And for older learners there are details about who to contact for education courses or if you just want to learn more without getting a qualification.

There’s also information about your local library; what activities schools do for children and their families outside of school-hours, and what other centres are available to provide support for children, families and mature students.

The council can help you in so many ways. Please click on the links in the ‘See also’ section below or view our factsheets:
