Subject: Re: Learning outside the classroom manifestoSadly missed training day due to work committments !!!!!I entirely concur with your comment Susan - our own local museum has zero subsidy and certainly could not afford this.I am also interesed in the implications for freelancers - any thoughts out there?CheersPeter Hood----- Original Message -----From: [log in to unmask] href="mailto:[log in to unmask]">Susan EddisfordTo: [log in to unmask] href="mailto:[log in to unmask]">[log in to unmask]Sent: Monday, May 26, 2008 6:44 PMSubject: Learning outside the classroom manifestoI recently attended an excellent day organised by MLA South West on progress with the Learning outside the classroom manifesto.However I was concerned to hear that applications for badging would probably cost £100 per museum, irrespective of size. This is a considerable sum for small volunteer run museums. It seems to me that if the badging scheme is to have credibility and support it should be available to all museums who meet the education provision and delivery standards, not just those who can afford it.I would be interested to hear what Gemmers think.Best wishesSusan EddisfordEducation OfficerTiverton Museum of Mid Devon Life
