GRASSROOTS RESPONSES TO REGIONAL EDUCATION CHALLENGES: a workshop
Members of the Fair Access Research project will be facilitating a workshop as part of the Festival of Learning in June.
The workshop will be held on Monday 27 June 2016 between 14:00-16:00 in the new FUSION BUILDING, TALBOT CAMPUS [F107].
We are inviting experts working in the field of education and equality to come together and share experiences and skills to find sustainable solutions to the region’s major education challenges.
We want grassroots solutions to grassroots challenges facing the region. This approach will enable targeted and tailored responses that work with the unique challenges of education and social justice in a diverse rural and coastal region.
In this innovative two-hour workshop, led by our Fair Access Researchers, we will work together to find sustainable solutions to the question:
“What are the challenges and opportunities for disadvantaged students to access education in the region?”
This workshop is about active participation by all those involved and collectively growing grassroots solutions. By taking part, you will be helping to build a community to turn challenges and barriers into opportunities and bridges.
We want you to be involved and to shape how our responses! So, please share with your colleagues and networks so that we can have a broad range of participants.
It is through working together and learning with each other that we can help make regional education opportunities more accessible and more sustainable.
