Welcome to the Rendezvous Education Unit. The REU, Based in the Rendezvous Education Centre in Cheltenham, has been formed to work with the formal education sector. This covers all schools and tertiary institutions in Gloucestershire. At present, the work is concentrated at upper primary (KS2) and lower secondary(KS3) levels.

The REU is working closely with the LEA's International Education Office and The Wilderness Education Centre. From January 1999, the unit will have a desk at the Hucclecote Teachers Centre in Gloucester, this will enable a closer liason with local teachers.
