Three two hour workshops opening up affirmative spaces for practitioners from BAMEed communities who work in AP-type-roles and/or drive quality improvement roles.

The Survive or Thrive workshops introduce delegates to an empirically tested model that helps identify the wide range of factors that can impact our psychological wellbeing.

It provides an opportunity to think about how and where to intervene to support us to thrive rather than just about survive.

Sam Slack, the Deptartment for Education's East Midlands HE/FE Regional Prevent Coordinator will explore what we actually mean by grooming and radicalisation.

• Are they the same thing and should our responses be the same?
• What is the relationship between grooming and extremism in modern society?
• By tackling one does this impact on the other?

During the session, we will consider the impact of extremism and radicalisation on further education and what we should be doing to keep learners safe and our reputations intact.

Yorkshire and Humber PDG programme

Yorkshire and Humber PDGs sit firmly within practitioner-led enquiry, and are driven by participants who work collaboratively to undertake a maths/English inquiry related to their learners and teaching practice. They plan, do and review; regrouping and discussing what worked (and didn't) with their PDG members, repeating this process over a period of four months.

Barney Angliss (Consultant in Special Educational Needs & Disability), the DCG project team at the ETF's Centre for Excellence in SEND and our Local Authority Teams will be working together to host a series of EHCP focussed sessions.

Imagining Better Outcomes for Young People with SEND

• What do we know about outcomes for 16-19 learners with EHCPs?
• What does research tell us about the reasons for these outcomes?
• ... So what is the function of outcomes in section E of an EHCP?
• ... and why can't outcomes be appealed?

The Taking Teaching Further (TTF) programme is a national initiative to attract experienced industry professionals with expert technical knowledge and skills to work in Further Education (FE) and Training. It was launched in June 2018 with three rounds of funding having been successfully completed between 2018 and 2021

This bite-sized webinar is for FE providers to increase their understanding of the support available to recruit to 'hard to fill' technical teaching roles via the TTF programme. 

In this short webinar, we will explore the benefits for employers to engage with learners with SEND and understand what employers really want. We will share our experiences and impact during the current climate of COVID-19 of engaging and securing employment for learners with SEND. By attending this session you will have the tools and knowledge to understand what employers really want and how to engage them effectively.

The knowledge exchange events aim to bring together maths and English practitioners based in post-16 further education settings, to share best practice and resources. 

The monthly sessions will provide an opportunity for our Centre for Excellence in SEND to share our effective practice of how we work with employers, our community including our parent/carers to help us give the best opportunities for our SEND learners. But even more importantly, its an opportunity for you to share what you are doing well.

In these sessions held monthly, we will look at emerging current themes, share effective approaches and ask ourselves 'how might we' to shape ideas together.
