Introduction – who we are and where we come from
This is a small part of the total curriculum.
This led to us setting our sights high in the development plan. Well, I say we. I mean me. 12 page long development plan but was looking for a way to deliver a lot of this. Barriers of funding, time and support.
Enter the 21st Century Learning Alliance. 500 word bid linked to ICT, School Space and Every Child Matters. Sent it off thinking that we may have a small chance. Promptly forgotten. Email landed a month or so later saying that we had been successful. Start thinking how we could deliver this. Start off small – an extra curricular project linked to a three day workshop and linked to planned school changes, after school focus group. A year later…….Key point is to seek out external funding and partners, look into the community both local and the wider geographical community
So to the project: School spaces also affect learning, indeed through the project we found that school space influences how pupils learn.
The project was closely linked to the BSF project at Priory school
Then somebody came along once it had almost reached completion. However, one of the aims was to find out how well school space could be used to support geographical learning, develop outdoor learning, every child matters and ICT.
So new school gone?
Aims – we wanted to address the issue that the views of one of the largest groups of stakeholders are often overlooked, or pupil voice is paid lip service. What would happen if we got young people talking directly to the decision makers? This has led on to the concept of Student Curriculum Leaders – something which isn’t new but….
Recap of aims, transferable and applicable to any situation as school space affects learning, changes don’t have to be large. As with any project – this started off small but aimed to include as many young people as possible by having an impact on schemes of work.
We identified a group of students to work with – after school in a small workshop and managed to convince SLT to allow us 3 days off timetable for a workshop facilitated by The Geography Collective. The workshopAlso linked to Personal Learning and thinking Skills – all about developing work related skills in students
Better arguments – access to toilets is a basic human right, as is access to clean drinking water. If the school doesn’t care about this basic right then how can it care about our learning?
Naughty learning has become an embedded concept.
I could talk at length about the benefits of Mission Explore to young people, school and learning and how technology can help to document learning, however, I’d rather get out to do some!
