Barnet Celebrates Achievement - July 2007 |  |
|
|

|
Many thanks for the positive feedback at the recent Headteachers' meetings. I thought it would be useful to summarise the position at it stands.
At this stage I need to know whether there are problems with the suggested dates or difficulties with the suggested activities, and whether we have missed out any major ideas. Please can you email Many thanks

Meeting the Needs of Pupils from Minority Ethnic Groups, Refugees and Travellers | |

For Information - Translation Disk A translation disk has now been circulated to every school in the borough. The main focus of this was to gather translation resources from within the Borough and to provide signposting to many free resources readily available on the internet. I hope you will find this a useful resource in promoting the Inclusive principles and practices which underpin much of the work in schools in Barnet. As colleagues will be well aware translation is not the solution to meeting the diverse needs of the language communities in our schools. Translation can aid in welcoming and supporting pupils and families into our school communities while reflecting our schools' commitment to valuing, respecting and celebrating language and cultural diversity. Classroom strategies supportive of raising the achievement of bilingual pupils/students have previously been sent to all schools in Barnet as well as resources for Celebrating Black History Month. Both these resources can be found at the link below and it is anticipated that in the near future all translation material will be up-loaded to this page. Sharon Sarder |

Invitation to BEARS Network Meeting | |
|
|
||||
|
PROMOTING CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE'S LEGAL RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES For Action - Confirm Attendance by 26 March 2007 Schools are invited to attend the next meeting of the BEARS Network (Barnet Environmental Action for Real in Schools) at 4pm on Wednesday 28 March at Mill Hill County High School, Worcester Crescent, Mill Hill, NW7 4LL. The meeting should be finished by about 5.30pm. The BEARS Network allows schools to share their experiences of carrying out environmental projects. All schools in Barnet are invited to join the Network, regardless of whether they have carried out an environmental project or not. Through the Network, schools can help each other to further improve their local environment. Everyone who has attended these relatively informal meetings has found them useful for developing environmental projects within their school, as well as having an informal chat with supportive colleagues. If you would like to attend the meeting, please confirm your attendance by Monday 26 March. For further information about the BEARS Network or to discuss environmental projects that your school could carry out, please contact Stuart Gadsden, Waste and Sustainability Officer on email stuart.gadsden@barnet.gov.uk or phone on 020 8359 7418 Stuart Gadsden |
