The WEA is a democratic and voluntary adult education movement. It delivers learning throughout England and Scotland. There was a related but independent WEA Cymru covering Wales, though it is now known as <a href="/wiki/Adult_Learning_Wales" title="Adult Learning Wales">Adult Learning Wales</a> since a merger in 2015 with YMCA Wales Community College. </p><p>The WEA's provision is usually local to its students. In 2015–16 there were over 8,000 courses delivered in over 1,800 community venues and 75% of WEA students travelled less than 2 miles to their class.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The WEA has throughout its history supported the development of similar educational initiatives and associations internationally. It is affiliated to the <a href="/wiki/International_Federation_of_Workers%27_Education_Associations" title="International Federation of Workers' Education Associations">International Federation of Workers' Education Associations</a> (IFWEA), which has consultative status to <a href="/wiki/UNESCO" title="UNESCO">UNESCO</a>. </p><p>The WEA is divided into nine regions in England, a Scottish Association and over 500 local branches. It creates and delivers about 9,000 courses each year in response to local need across England and Scotland, often in partnership with community groups and local charities. These courses provide learning opportunities for around 65,000 people per year, taught by over 2,000 professional tutors (most of whom work for the WEA part-time). </p><p>The WEA is supported by the Government through funding from the Skills Funding Agency in England, and in Scotland by the Scottish Executive and Local Authorities. It also receives fees from learners on many of its courses and is often successful in funding bids from government, lottery and other sources for educational projects in local communities around the country. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="History">History</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Workers%27_Educational_Association&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Albert_Mansbridge" title="Albert Mansbridge">Albert Mansbridge</a> (10 January 1876 – 22 August 1952) and his wife <a href="/wiki/Frances_Jane_Pringle" class="mw-redirect" title="Frances Jane Pringle">Frances</a> (née Frances Jane Pringle, 1876–1958) established <i>An Association to promote the Higher Education of Working Men</i> in 1903 (renamed 'Workers Educational Association' in 1905), funded by two shillings and sixpence from the housekeeping money. Archbishop of Canterbury <a href="/wiki/William_Temple_(archbishop)" class="mw-redirect" title="William Temple (archbishop)">William Temple</a> was a strong proponent of workers' education. </p><p>The first Scottish branch of the WEA was in Springburn, Glasgow, although this only lasted until 1909 at that time, the Edinburgh and Leith Branch coming into existence on 25 October 1912 after a meeting held at the Free Gardeners' Hall, 12-14 Picardy Place, Edinburgh. The meeting was chaired by Professor Lodge and addressed by Albert Mansbridge and Dr. Bernard Bosanquet. The meeting was attended by 200 people, including James Munro who became Secretary of the newly formed branch.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>WEA branches for North and South Wales were established early in the 20th century. An instrumental figure was <a href="/wiki/David_Thomas_(educationalist)" title="David Thomas (educationalist)">David Thomas</a>, who taught classes for the WEA in Caernarfonshire from 1928 to 1959, and instigated the founding of <i>Lleufer</i> (Light) as a Welsh-language WEA periodical, which he edited it until 1965. <a href="/wiki/Coleg_Harlech" title="Coleg Harlech">Coleg Harlech</a> was founded in 1925 as a residential college for workers' education, and in 2001 merged with the WEA (North Wales).

It would come to operate across Northern Ireland and in the Border Counties in the Republic. It eventually had around 6,500 learners in any given year. It ceased to function in June 2014, when it ran into a cash flow problem and its bank refused to extend credit. It provided adult education in community and workplace settings. Its title was somewhat misleading as it provided education for all types of people and in particular tried to reach out to those who missed out on learning first time round. It worked mainly with those over 18.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.
