The impact of these activities is proven to be positive and research shows that joining a Children's University can make a real difference to children's confidence, social skills, attainment and attendance at school.

How can I achieve my award?
Children are able to collect stamps in their Children’s University Passport to Learning. Usually, one session or activity is worth one stamp. Stamps can be collected at after school clubs, holiday schemes and validated Learning Destinations. You can also collect stamps by completing half termly challenges set by Children’s University or attending Art Galleries and Museums. You can achieve your first award at 30 stamps!
