Are you a Designated Teacher / Senior Leader?  Have you booked your place at Raising the Attainment of Disadvantaged Youngsters (RADY)

Louise Blackburn from Challenging Education will lead the day and we will hear from a number of people.

Houlton School regarding their mixed-attainment strategy, which is inclusive for all children, but particularly those who might be vulnerable. Houlton School’s strategy recognises all children are able and talented. It is proven to lead to the best progress and happiest children.

Rugby Free Secondary School will share what they are doing with their Curriculum, Teaching and Learning, and Safeguarding in relation to equity. Rugby Free Secondary’s “ambitious culture has been achieved through the development of strong and positive relationships with staff, students, parents and carers. Our reflective approach means we are always striving to improve in all that we do and believe that mistakes are only an opportunity to learn.”

Clapham Terrace Primary’s passion and dedication to inclusion is infectious! They will share their strategy and demonstrate how they ensure equity for all children. “At Clapham Terrace Community Primary School and Nursery we are committed to creating an outstanding, happy and secure learning environment in which the unique qualities of each child are recognised, respected and valued.”

Trevor Sutcliffe from Challenging Education shared the idea of ‘Achieving Equity in Education’ at the October headteachers conference. Now designated teachers and other senior leaders can spend a day focusing on ways to improve attainment for all vulnerable children, with a particular focus on those who are CiC, children previously in care and those who have or have had a social worker.

As well as the presenting schools the day will cover:
