Description
A whole day of workshops for groups of pupils throughout your school, delivered by a dedicated ally of disabled people. Engaging and thought-provoking, these workshops are a must for schools that want to challenge prejudice and promote disability equality.
Workshops will help pupils to:
learn more about disability and human rights
hear disabled people’s perspectives
identify common stereotypes and some of the prejudices disabled people face
consider what disability is and how it arises
understand the difference between impairment and disability
review terminology and its effect on disabled people’s identities
learn about disabled people who have made a difference
ask sensitive questions anonymously
become advocates for disability equality
95-100% of participants say that they found our workshop helpful
Some of the reasons pupils have given for finding the workshop helpful are:
“Until today I had always been scared of disabled people but today I have learnt that disabled people have a heart and emotions too.”
“I now understand more about disabilities. My sister and brother has disabilities.”
“It shows that although disabled people have limits they can do many things.”
“Because presenter told in very simply way about complicated things and used interesting examples.”
“Now I know that disabled people do things differently.”
FAQs:
How long is each workshop?
40-45 minutes; this can be adjusted to fit in with your school day.
How many workshops will you deliver?
We can deliver up to six workshops in a day.
How many pupils should there be in each group?
The workshops are interactive, so they are more effective with groups of around 20 pupils. We are often asked to work with larger groups and this still generates excellent feedback from pupils and staff.
What year groups are these workshops for?
The workshops are suitable for all year groups in primary and secondary schools; we adapt the content and presentation according to the age of pupils.
Does a member of staff need to stay with the group?
Yes, we ask that a member of staff is present at each workshop.
Will you need any equipment?
We ask for a computer, projector and access to the internet. Pupils will need a pen to write with.
How are the workshops evaluated?
At the end of each workshop we ask all (except the youngest) pupils to write down if they have found it helpful or not and why; we may also offer them an opportunity to ask a question anonymously.If schools have opted for this (please see optional extras below) we will send the school written responses to questions and a transcript of pupils’ feedback as evidence of impact.
