- Feedback
-
'I absolutely loved the training. It was excellent, pertinent and very useful ' - feedback from EAL coordinator training.
'I learnt more about what my children think, are aware of and their pre-conceived ideas about people’s religions' – teacher’s feedback.
'The traveller and EAL workshops you presented were very informative and factual. They gave our children an insight into the traveller lifestyle and gave an opportunity for children to empathise with children who have EAL' - feedback from teacher.
'The workshop was pitched perfectly to meet the needs of our children and allowed them the space to consider stereotyping, a feature of our PSHE work, in a safe environment' - school feedback.
