<div>Dear all, </div>
<div> </div>
<div>You are warmly invited to the second* seminar in series: <b>Educating Communities: teachers in supplementary schools</b> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The aim of this seminar is to explore the growth of supplementary and complementary education from the grass roots, giving a voice to the experiences of people involved in educating, and supporting education, outside of mainstream schooling: a ‘shadow’ workforce often made up of parents and community leaders and activists. This seminar explores the tensions and ambiguities encountered by those working within the shadows of formal schooling, and the benefits of making links between the complementary and mainstream sectors.</div>

of the Arts and Sciences must be strengthened and encouraged to develop
its studies. These are the subjects which contribute most of the
understanding and growth of our cultural heritage, and so assist in
fulfilling one of the University&#39;s primary aims. These studies, which
are concerned with human cultural achievements, human rights, and
duties, human freedoms, will enable youth to develop the understanding
and judgment necessary to the formulation of a sound philosophy of
life, to the making of wise choices, and to understand what is involved
in these choices...&quot; </i><br><i><br></i>Speech by Emperor Haile Selassie I, 19th December 1961 <br><br>
