East of England Co-operative Society

The Education Department of the East of England Co-operative Society aims to develop a culture of Co-operation and our work with schools, colleges, the voluntary and community sector is far reaching across Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. Our work with young people, and the adults who work with them, is based on our Values and Principles and is a set of co-operative learning methodologies which are inclusive and participative. We believe our methods of engagement are not only enjoyable, but truly engage and enthuse participants.
