training and CPD
Global Action Plan are offering free one-day workshops to a teacher and 30 students aged 11-18 (ideally at the older end of the scale), looking at the impact of consumerism on young people’s wellbeing.
In the workshop, they will give students tools to look after their own mental wellbeing, question our relationship with ‘stuff’, and build resilience to – and spot – when they’re being advertised to. Content from the workshop will then be used as part of a national campaign – the first of its kind – giving students the chance to have their voices heard by hundreds of policy makers and industry influencers.
They will deliver the workshops at your school. They currently have availability for:
- w/c 25th February
- w/c 4th March
Please see flyer below for further information.
This programme is run by the maths Hubs and consists of a blend of collaborative training and bespoke support, aimed at giving your school an introduction to the ‘Big Ideas’ around teaching for mastery and preparing you for future programmes.
The support within the programme will be spread over the academic year, when you will be part of half-termly group workshops with up to six other schools, as well as receiving half-termly school visits bespoke to your needs. There is no charge for the workshops or the visits from the Mastery Readiness Lead. The programme will involve your maths lead and another teacher and will need to be supported by the headteacher.
There are are currently seven places available for a group of interested Solihull schools (on a first come, first served basis) for support starting this year. If you would like further information or details of how to register for this programme, please contact Donna Wright (dowright@solihull.gov.uk) before end of September 2019.
