Training and Consultancy
Salusbury WORLD gives guidance and support to schools and other education professionals via a comprehensive training package, custom-made INSET sessions, or individual consultancy. The training focuses on understanding issues facing refugee children and their families, and on offering positive responses for schools to take on board, based on our own experience of good practice. We also provide presentations at education conferences at institutions across the country.
Background
In offering training our aim is to provide the space for staff to reflect on current provision, share the best practice of colleagues in other institutions, and ascertain what would work best in their own situation. This work is done against a background of information regarding the actual experience of refugees and asylum seekers and the issues as they see them.
The training is always rooted in daily life, aiming to help participants identify the next step they need to take, and to give them access to the tools required to take it.
We generally use a combination of talk, discussion, videos, and practical workshops. The training should lead to identifiable improvements in daily practice.
INSET Sessions: Introduction
- Where have refugee children come from?
- What might they have experienced, in their own country and in the UK?
- How might they be feeling? What are the implications for schools?
In this session we examine some of the major causes of flight, discuss the experience of some refugees, and unpick the legal situation on arrival in the UK as it influences the lives of children in our schools.
