In response to requests from GEM and SMC members, Grass Roots has organised two training events in 2006:
 

Working With Special Educational Needs 
 
Monday 6 February at Aberdeen Art Gallery and Museum, Aberdeen, 10.00 – 16.00
 
Ways in which museums can become inclusive to people with learning and physical disabilities, and how they can design inclusive activities for visitors and groups will be explored. 


The School Curriculum: developments and new avenues

Thursday 9 March at St Mungo’s Museum, Glasgow, 10.00 – 16.00
 
Taking into account people’s basic understanding of working with schools, this day will attempt to offer new ideas of imaginative ways to link with the school curriculum and some ideas on how to extend to new school audiences.
