]]> 2021-08-06 13:46:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_oner/offenderlearningnetwork/wish/1671057724 Your breakout suggestions on future topics: rachel_oner https://padlet.com/rachel_oner/offenderlearningnetwork/wish/1671086388 Neurodiversity: What are prisons doing to cater for this? How can we provide day to day support for Tutors? Not much focus of neurodiversity on women, what can we do about it? Mental Health: How can we cater for it? How do we upskill and support staff/learners that need it.
Mainstream: What is happening in mainstream education, is there anything new/anything we can learn/integrate into Prison Education?
Networking: Opportunity for staff from the various Prison Contracts to network with each other/share best practice etc.; sharing practical ideas; learning about what projects people are working on; opportunities for collaboration. Making links and connections between providers.
LDD awareness: a need for a collaborative whole prison approach to raising LDD awareness with IOs and officers - LDD is not just relevant to education.
Awarding bodies bringing practitioners together for subject specific sessions
CPD on ESOL Initial Assessment and special arrangements/adaptations;
Technology: sharing effective practice. Developing use of technology such as Essential Digital Skills assessments and doing assessments online etc.
Sharing resources as we have found that many of us are the only tutor of our particular subjects.
ESOL -Also how to get across the problem of ESOL learners understanding language heavy maths questions.]]> 2021-08-06 14:17:50 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_oner/offenderlearningnetwork/wish/1671086388 Advanced Practioners Programme - Lou Mycroft's Presentation, expression of interest form and contacts. rachel_oner https://padlet.com/rachel_oner/offenderlearningnetwork/wish/1671088674 LouTo express an interest in the Programme, please complete this brief form: https://forms.gle/BYkfQ1YLGVgDVMYz6
