Dear all, I attended an amazing free day of training on embedding various protected characteristics within adult education at City Lit yesterday and it was live streamed and recorded. You can access it on this link. http://livestream.com/L4L/ident It is always extremely useful to hear how other providers do it and see practical example of inclusion in a range of settings. Sadly ESOL was not specifically featured ... but you know me by now and I made sure we were not forgotten and one of the connection I made led to me sending you the links in my previous email on the research linking poverty and language acquisition (to support future Save ESOL Campaigns) The equalities toolkit has been supporting E&D inclusion projects and initiatives for half a decade ( I think) and their resources can be found on this link http://www.equalitiestoolkit.com/ make sure you use them before they too disappear !! we have already lost the talent website among other resources Just type ESOL in their search engine and you will find a fantastic wealth of resources. Please feel free to cascade to relevant staff and departments.
