An Exciting Practical Face-To-Face Textiles Skills Course, 
for Teachers of GCSE & A Level Textiles, for both Art & Design and D&T.



Review:  ‘Put simply, this is the best course I’ve ever been on.
Excellent pace and delivery with resources sent afterwards as well. We learnt so many techniques and then practised them for ourselves too! We also learnt how our students could develop them further. We did so many samples of each of the techniques with a variety of materials and processes. Viewing exemplar sketchbooks at the end was a great way to conclude the day.
I’ve come home, buzzing with excitement, feeling inspired and well prepared for the next academic year. I would highly recommend! Great course, delivered by a lovely team! Thank you so much!’ Alice Munro – June 24, 2023

Course Description:
Disagreements, differences of opinion and conflicting perspectives on key issues inevitably arise in any context where people are working together.
Research has shown that workplace conflicts can become highly destructive. Negative emotions may be stirred up, poisoning team morale, creating stress and destroying relationships.
Conflict may emerge between managers and their staff, between team members or departments.
Conflict may be expressed openly, but it may also be hidden, in the form of irritation, resentment, loss of morale and lack of commitment. Hidden conflict is easy to miss and therefore can be particularly damaging.
Ultimately, this is likely to have an adverse effect on team and company performance, costing time and money.
It is therefore vital to manage conflict constructively.
As an team member and leader, your ability to deal with and resolve conflicts defines your success in the longer term.
Our one day workshop in Conflict Management and Communication Skills immerses you in the most advanced conflict management tools, strategies and practices applicable today.
