SYeLP was a partnership between four South Yorkshire authorities with support from which regional development agency for the area?
SYeLP The South Yorkshire e-learning Programme (SYeLP), branded as ‘e-sy.info’, was established in 2001. It is a partnership of four local authorities in South Yorkshire: Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council, Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council and Sheffield City Council, with support from Yorkshire Forward and the LSC . Established as a European Union (EU) Objective 1-funded project, it began with an initial feasibility study, followed by a pilot phase in 2001/2002 and roll-out of the main programme from 2003 onwards. The programme’s vision is: to contribute to economic regeneration in the South Yorkshire region and support the growth of information and knowledge-based industries through developing the digital skills of the current and future workforce; to harness the potential of digital technology to support learning for all ages 10 and above, in schools, colleges, businesses and the community.
Children's Regional Planning Committee Children's Regional Planning Committees were established in England and Wales by the Secretary of State for Health and Social Security in 1970 under Section 35 of the Children and Young Persons Act 1969. They comprised one elected representative from each county and county borough council in the area which they covered and were funded by those same councils. There were eleven committees throughout England (North, Yorkshire and Humberside, North Western, West Midlands, East Midlands, East Anglia, Home Counties, London Boroughs, South East, Wessex, and South West) and one for Wales.
