Teachers and other educators building a learning community for the global dimension.

Brighton and Hove

Post-inspection support and guidance
Primary Advisor for Brighton and Hove City Council, Hilary Ferries contacted Brighton Peace and Environment Centre to ask for support for a school following an inspection. West Hove Infants School were recently given a glowing Ofsted report, but are keen to develop what the report highlighted as areas for improvement, particularly, "finding more ways to develop pupil's understanding of Cultural Diversity."

Hilary had met with the staff team to give some initial ideas but is keen for BPEC to further develop work in the school. The Local4Global funding enabled BPEC to deliver training to the whole staff team of the school, developing teachers understanding of Global Citizenship and providing practical tools for incorporation across the curriculum within an infant school.
A follow up session will give teachers an opportunity to reflect and discuss any concerns or questions they may have after carrying out Global Citizenship activities in the classroom.
Outcomes
:
1. Teachers develop their understanding of teaching Global Citizenship and have access to advice and resources to support this work in their Infant School.
2. LA Primary Advisor advocates for and promotes Education for Global Citizenship within schools in the city.
