Every Child Matters requires that agencies work together in providing joined-up services to support children in their learning and development. These courses explore practical ways to use reading to connect practitioners in delivering such services.
As with all of Jerry's training, sessions can be tailored to specific local needs. Jerry is also happy to create new courses.
Training options include:
-
Reading making connections: partnership working with looked-after young people and residential care staff
-
Stronger together! Effective partnership working with schools
Areas commonly explored across these training options:
- Finding common agendas
- Policy and research evidence to support joint work focused on reading
- Best practice and case studies
- How partnerships might work
- Overcoming potential barriers to partnership
- Reading ideas and activities
- Action planning
The
session was pitched at exactly the right level in content, delivery
and opportunities for participation and debate. Importantly, the whole
session was infused by a sympathetic understanding of exactly where
the delegates were coming from in terms of their knowledge, enthusiasm,
experience and capacity. Trust was established quickly and this led
to a welcome openness in debate. All the delegates graded the session
as 10/10 and wanted a return visit to continue the relationship.'
Peter Burns, Youth Services Manager, Durham Libraries
