Embedding Children's Participative Rights in Practice
Event: Children's Participation in Schools Symposium
Posted by: Georgia | Date: 20/12/23
You are invited to a seminar where we will present our findings from the first phase of this exciting ESRC-funded research project, where we explored:
- a critical analysis of the position of teachers in Wales regarding children’s participative rights in education, and
- how students in Initial Teacher Education (ITE) are prepared for this responsibility.
Join us to find out more and discuss the implications of this phase of the research, as well as hear about the second phase in which we are working with schools across Wales to explore the pedagogical implications of children’s participation.
This online event is on: Thursday 18th January from 3.30 – 5pm
