A GROUP of adult learners have been selected as model students after devising a project to help their education.
The five Shildon students, who studied on a course at the town's Sunnydale School Community Learning Centre, have won the County Durham Adult Learners Award 2001.
Linda Oliver, 38, Malcolm Wood, 50, Richard Stephenson, 32, Carol Atkinson, 38 and James Clarkson, 28, worked on a project to develop literacy, numeracy and computing skills, working with tutor Diane Graham.
The five will receive prizes from the Learning and Skills Council at a ceremony at the Redworth Hall Hotel on July 18.
