SLN 2nd Annual Network Day Workshops

 

Please find below the descriptions of the workshops which took place during Network Day 2010

 

Workshop 1 - My Controversial Identity? The Ripples of Impact – SLN

This workshop will provide participants with the opportunity to explore how to deal with the controversial issues which arise in a school, whether in a classroom or a corridor situation. We will look at the impact that incidents can have, not only on ‘victims’ or ‘perpetrators’, but also on the wider school community, how we can be better prepared to deal with tricky situations and how we have to work as a whole school to develop broader perspectives, critical thinking and emotional literacy.

Participants will be joined by a range of secondary students who will give their input on how issues are dealt with or not in their schools.

 

Workshop 2 – “I Believe” in School Linking – Three Faiths Forum

This workshop will be considering the additional logistics which need to be considered for linking students of different faiths and beliefs and how to support your students and answer difficult questions concerning religious and non religious identities.

 

Workshop 3 - Finding common ground, striving for shared aspirations – Lifeworlds Learning

This workshop will use a creative activity to identify the common ground that exists between Community Cohesion, Sustainable Schools and Global Learning. We will build the case for a more holistic approach to these and other agendas and demonstrate how this might be achieved by placing learning at the core of

best practice.
