A Reflective Approach to Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion in Early Years Settings, With Guest Trainer Dr Sharon Colilles

March 6 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm GMT

Free

Stronger Practice Hub Event

Reflecting on her own story and being guided by her doctoral research, Dr Sharon Colilles will support educators across all disciplines in early childhood to further develop awareness and understanding about how play can act as a vehicle for reflection on participatory pedagogy and practice.

She will reflect on how the environment can be an ideal space in which to value and validate children’s diverse ethnic backgrounds and how culturally appropriate resources can facilitate rich conversations about a positive sense of self with young children.

The webinar will support early years educators to reflect on principled approaches for inclusion and how adaptations in pedagogical approach can foster a strong sense of self, sense of belonging and sense of wellbeing for the diverse learner.

All or part of this session will be recorded.

Dr Sharon Colilles is Senior Lecturer in early childhood education at Bath Spa University, a Trustee on Froebel Trust Council, Vice Chair on the Executive for Early Childhood Studies Degrees Network (ECSDN) and an associate trainer for Early Education.

She has a diverse career background, initially working as a policy manager, owner/operator of a private day setting and more recently working as project assistant for the development of Birth to Five Matters non-statutory guidance, as well as being part of the advisory panel for the development of the new children’s gallery at the National History Museum.
