Training Events in Wales

Currently, the majority of our training events are requested directly by schools, colleges or councils.

However, from 2016 onwards, we expanded our services and offered a series of training events and education courses at a venue in Wales. Individuals are able to apply to attend these training events.

We are committed to supporting the development of education in our own locality. 'Designing for Learning' is grounded in the pedagogies identified in 'Successful Futures' (Donaldson, 2015), which in turn will underpin the development and implementation of  'A Curriculum for Wales'. 

If you would like to receive information about these events, please register your interest by completing the online form.

Building a Learning Community

FOCUS: An 'experiential' day that focuses on the use of 'community building activities'. Participants will engage in a variety of tasks and games that can be applied to different age ranges and curriculum areas. The purposeful placement of these activities can address 'potentially serious' community issues in a less-threatening way.

Step 2 is the second part of the full Designing for Learning Training Event. It is beneficial for the same Step 1 Cohort to attend Step 2 together in order for optimum continuation and progression,  sharing of experiences based on Step 1 and the development of a professional network.

Developing attitudes, skills and knowledge to be successful in school, the world of work and life. Moving from breadth to depth, challenge and application.
