FAQs
Where can I use my Passport to Learning?
You can collect stamps in your Passport to Learning at your school's CU clubs and activities. CU activities take place outside of normal school hours (before school, during lunchtime or after school). You can also use your passport at the weekend or during school holidays at 'public' CU learning destinations. More details can be found on the National Children’s University website. If you're going on holiday or visiting another town for the day, you might be able to collect stamps in your Passport to Learning by visiting CU learning destinations in other towns, counties and indeed countries!
What happens if I lose my Passport to Learning?
All Passports to Learning have a sticker in the back with your details, so if somebody finds it they should know to return it to your school.
If no-one finds and returns your passport, then you have buy a new one. Unfortunately you will also lose the hours of learning you have collected. So keep it safe.
Do I have to take any tests or exams?
There are no exams, but of course you may do examinations as part of your learning, for example in music.
What happens if I want to leave the Children's University?
Once you have your Passport to Learning, you decide how many activities you would like to take part in, collecting stamps as you go. If you decide you would like to take a break then you can. When you are interested in doing another Children's University activity, then you can take your Passport to Learning along with you. You choose how many activities you want to do and when. But if you want to leave please let your CU coordinator at school know.
