About us

Westminster is at the heart of London. The council’s ambition is for Westminster to be a City for All – a place where people are born into a supportive and safe environment, grow and learn throughout their lives, build fantastic careers in world-leading industries, have access to affordable homes and retire into the community with dignity and pride.

This ambition has been fundamental to our strategic thinking at WAES. The Service is well-known for inclusive, high quality adult education programmes in art, vocational, workbased curriculum, basic skills, community and family learning.
