SUMMARY:It Starts With Us: EDI Taster for Early Years Practitioners
DESCRIPTION:Stronger Practice Hub Event \nWould you like to explore and develop your Equality\, Diversity and Inclusion practice? What do we mean by EDI? What role can Early Years professionals and childminders play in promoting Equality\, Diversity and Inclusion with a particular focus on race\, culture\, and gender identity? \nThis taster session will introduce you to EDI and encourage you to start a journey of self-discovery and increased awareness in a safe space. It will touch on how our values and experiences influence our practice\, how we should seek to know and understand the identities of the unique child\, family and community and how we can use this knowledge to influence change and develop practice in our settings. \nAfter this taster session\, you will have the opportunity to continue your journey and sign up for our EDI bundle\, which involves three sessions. These sessions will go into more depth and involve more discussion and reflection over a period of time. \nThis session is for Early Years Practitioners. We are running another EDI Taster session for Childminders. \nPart of this event may be recorded. \n\n    This training is for early years practitioners and leaders working in settings or childminders in our Stronger Practice Hub area (Bristol\, Bath and North East Somerset\, Somerset\, North Somerset\, Gloucestershire\, South Gloucestershire).

SUMMARY:Relationship Mapping With Jacqui Lewis
DESCRIPTION:Stronger Practice Hub Event \nJacqui Lewis \nUsing the beautiful simplicity of sociograms\, this course will provide you with a visual representation of the relationships with the children in your setting. As early years educators and leaders of pedagogy\, you are invited to deconstruct\, confront\, theorise\, and potentially think otherwise about the significance of positive and nurturing relationships within the setting. \nAims and objectives – Delegates will have opportunities to: \n\nReflect\, identify\, question\, and potentially reconsider assumptions and perceptions of the connections and relationships with children in our settings.\nConsider the significance of equitable\, positive\, and nurturing relationships\, between every child and early years educator\, to have the best possible start in life.\nExplore how the concept of relationship mapping can support each child to connect to at least one adult in the setting: to be known and feel felt.\nReflect upon the individual and pedagogical factors of influence to these relationships\, such as attachment stages and types\, play\, deployment\, attendance\, interaction styles\, key person approach\, gender constructs\, transitions\, unconscious bias and culture.\n\nThis training is suitable for all early educators from 0-5 years. It will be interactive with discussion and break out rooms\, so please join with the expectation of participating. \nThis training is being delivered by Jacqui Lewis on behalf of the Stronger Practice Hub. \nJacqui Lewis is an advocate for children\, childhoods\, and high quality\, inclusive early childhood education. Her broad experience across the early education sector has consistently sought to respect\, protect\, and celebrate early educators and achieve an equitable relationship to empower reflexivity and growth. Jacqui has held previous roles as a Setting Leader\, Area SENco\, Ofsted Inspector\, and has supported settings daily in the role of Local Authority Officer. Jacqui is currently part of a research team exploring children’s participatory rights\, teaches on the DfE NPQ for Early Years Leadership\, is a regional Makaton Tutor\, and an Associate University Lecturer. Informed by practice\, postgraduate research\, and a rights-based philosophy\, The Thinking Spot (Early Education Consultancy) is immersed in respectful\, inclusive practice for every child whilst understanding sector challenges and complexities within educators’ professional identities. \nRead more about Jacqui Lewis here. \n\n    This training is for early years practitioners and leaders working in settings or childminders in our Stronger Practice Hub area (Bristol\, Bath and North East Somerset\, Somerset\, North Somerset\, Gloucestershire\, South Gloucestershire).

SUMMARY:EEF Physical Development Toolkit - What to Know and How to Use It with Hellen Battelley
DESCRIPTION:Stronger Practice Hub Event \nHelen Battelley \nThis webinar will explore the content in the Education Endowment Foundations’ recently published Physical Development tool kit within the Evidence Store. \n\nWhat is the evidence store and PD tool kit?\nReviewing ‘Teaching the skills needed for moving and handling’ – Teaching and Learning Approaches.\n‘Reviewing Teaching the skills needed for mark making’ – Teaching and learning Approaches.\nToolkit resources – Written and Video content\nWhat else to consider?\n\nPlease Note: This session will be recorded. \nHelen Battelley is an internationally renowned consultant\, trainer\, author and speaker in Physical activity/movement in Early and Primary Education with an MA in Early Childhood Physical Activity. \nThe movement philosophy Helen promotes is to embed movement within the curriculum and framework to enable a movement philosophy. Young children learn through movement\, early years practice must adopt an approach which is accessible to all. \nHelen’s sessions are primarily aimed at increasing practitioners confidence\, motivation and basic movement skills\, enabling them to create their own movement activities to support learning- building on these core principles to become part of their everyday planning. Staff have found the courses to ‘reignite a spark’ within them to become more physically active in their own lives. \nLearn more about Helen Battelley here. \n\n    This training is for early years practitioners and leaders working in settings or childminders in our Stronger Practice Hub area (Bristol\, Bath and North East Somerset\, Somerset\, North Somerset\, Gloucestershire\, South Gloucestershire).
