London

InspirEDucate is a network that aims to celebrate and promote the brilliance of our profession whilst working towards a reimagined education system. We offer a range of support services to schools and organisations within the education sector. Additionally, we connect people together, building social and professional capital within education. Our objectives are: To celebrate the excellence within the education system, recognising the work of individuals and groups to deliver a high quality education to our children To pursue and drive for change in our education system, with a particular focus on pushing for visionary policy, improved funding and a low-stakes, system-led accountability system To provide high quality support for Trust and School leaders We do this through: Challenging the status quo in the education system in presentations at conferences, social media and partner events Connecting to and collaborating with organisations with a high level of value alignment with InspirEDucate Utilising the influence and reach of our partner organisations to provide bespoke School Improvement and coaching support to organisations and their leaders. Our children deserve the best education. To achieve this our schools need leaders who are inspired to create a strong vision for their community. A vision that looks beyond the short termism and austerity that currently plague our profession. At InspirEDucate we don't look to tell leaders how to run their schools but rather to collaborate with them in order to: refine and refocus the vision and strategy review the varied and complex areas of a school organisation to establish if the vision is truly embedded in the school culture coach and inspire school leaders

Earth Building Uk And Ireland

earth building uk and ireland

Chippenham

We are a registered charity working to foster earth building in all its diversity. In Lingala, a common language in Congo, EBUKI means 'I work, I dance'; we like that ... Where we started EBUKI started with a meeting, in 2007, of people and organisations interested in increasing and normalising earth in construction. To make earth building normal requires more research, more teaching and training, more standards, more assessment, more information, more networking, more built examples, more experienced professionals, in other words more of lots of different activities! So, we agreed that an organisation, which fostered the use of earth as a building material in all its forms was essential. We have had a great deal of success and continue to grow our organisation from strength to strength. What we do increase awareness about earth building keep our website and social media resources updated on a range of earth building topics provide expert speakers and workshop leaders at our National events arrange information gathering and dissemination work with National and International partners to write, publish and set new standards for earth building techniques develop accredited standards in training for earth builders send earth builders, trainers and assessors for accredited training work to develop a library of information about materials and techniques work to develop a mapping facility of UK and Irish earth buildings act as an umbrella for research, development and practice funding applications participate actively in a European earth building network pursue a range of agendas, which make the use of earth much easier encourage similar earth building organisations in Africa coordinate with joint research (Currently exploring opportunities in India)

WLC Ltd spun out of the University of Dundee in 2004, originally to commercialise the results of a major EPSRC funded programme “A Generic Approach to Whole Life Costing”. Its activities have subsequently expanded to encompass the commercialisation of all the intellectual property and expertise developed by the Construction Management Research Unit (CMRU). The CMRU was part of the Department of Civil Engineering which was consistently placed top in Scotland and in the top half dozen in the UK in successive national Research Assessment Exercises. Supported by the research carried out by the CMRU, the company is ideally positioned to realise the synergies between academic research and practising professionals. The company’s multi-disciplinary staff, all of whom hold or are working towards a PhD, include Civil, Mechanical and Environmental Engineers, Architects and Computer Scientists. Drawing on this cutting edge research, the company has specialist expertise in the fields of construction productivity improvement, labour forecasting, project cost and time modelling, whole life costing, value management, risk based asset management and sustainability assessment. Its four technical directors continue to hold part-time or honorary appointments in world class academic institutions. Together they have track records in winning research and consultancy funding approaching £10m from both the public and private sectors in the area of Construction Management. More than 25 PhDs in productivity, sustainability, risk based asset management, whole life costing and cost management have been completed at the Construction Management Research Unit under the supervision of Professor Horner (Chairman of WLC Limited), and the company has carried out commissions to a value in excess of £3m.

Wild Atlantic Travel Co

Londonderry

My passion for travel started when I was 17, leaving home and going to the Irish traditional city of Galway on the beautiful west coast of Ireland to live and work. This journey has continued and never wavers to the current day. I’m always looking for the next adventure and to “step outside my comfort zone” I have taught English and lived in San Francisco, Sydney, Melbourne, Hungary, Spain and traveled extensively all over Asia and the Pacific. pexels-photo-1560932 Educational Tourism I currently work in Educational tourism and I’m the European Project Manager for Foyle International Ltd. I oversee Erasmus work-based internships from all over Europe. I also write large funding applications to give local people the opportunity to experience different cultures, learn new working ethics and enhance their employability skills. Through this experience, I’ve noticed that personal growth is as important as professional development and that travel and tourism can increase drive, motivation and learning. pexels-photo-1015568 Educational Background My educational background includes a bachelor's degree in Business Management with Spanish. I sit on the UK board for ECVET (European Accreditation for Vocational Education and Training) and travel to different European destinations to discuss and devise methodologies to further enhance and improve Erasmus procedures and programmes. Ethos I believe that travel and experiential learning are paramount to one’s development. This includes tourism that focuses on history, culture, heritage, outdoor and therapeutic activities. Wild Atlantic learning recognises the value of travel but recognises our responsibility to implement provisions that are sustainable, Eco and combat our carbon footprint. “The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it”

The Royal Pinner School Foundation

the royal pinner school foundation

Helping the children of travelling salespeopleI feel that it is a great honour to have been elected Chairman of our Foundation, and I trust that we shall continue to be effective in providing educational support for children of travelling sales people during times of adversity. Many years ago, when I was experiencing a tricky time with my career, I was fortunate to receive a series of grants primarily to assist my youngest daughter, Claire, with her education and specialist swimming training. Royal Pinner’s assistance, at a crucial stage of Claire’s education, was invaluable. Claire went on to graduate from Leeds University as well as to participate in the Paralympic Games held in Athens, Beijing, London and Rio – where she won a Gold Medal. Obviously, our Royal Pinner grants were withdrawn when Lottery funding became available, but we shall be forever grateful for the support we received at a critical stage of Claire’s development. Being in receipt of support is one side of the Trust and, since becoming a Trustee several years ago, I have also seen the other side – helping to alleviate the hardships encountered by our beneficiaries and new applicants – and I have felt very humbled. Most of our families face and endure far more difficult circumstances than I did, but, on the other hand, I have also seen how effective our grants and pastoral support can be. Our focus remains on the sons and daughters of commercial travellers where there is also a specific need or hardship, and we aim to continue to provide effective educational support during the years to come.

CCF strives to improve the social and economic wellbeing of disadvantaged communities by providing opportunities for people to develop their skills, gain qualifications and improve their health. Set up in 1997, Community Connect Foundation (CCF) has been working in partnership with many private and public sector organisations to improve the social and economic wellbeing of the disadvantaged communities in inner city areas. Through its work, CCF has developed, in effect, into a Community Anchor serving a much wider range of residents, communities and geographical areas. Whilst its base in Smethwick is an important one for its ability to reach out to communities in Smethwick, much of its work is delivered across a larger geographical area. With the help and support of managed funding from a variety of sources, we have been able to provide quality service provisions to more than 8,000 people. A substantial number of these people have gained qualifications and moved on to find employment.It demonstrates our determination to reach out into all sections of our communities to provide essential training opportunities, heath advice and youth development support to those that need it most. The success of CCF relies on the charity’s strong partnerships with statutory providers and community-based organisations. Much of CCF’s work is delivered on an outreach basis throughout Sandwell and Birmingham. Having maintained an accreditation from Matrix Standards & Investors in People (IIP) since 2004, we are confident we deliver a quality assured service consistently which is benchmarked by prestigious national standards. Additionally, we are accredited by prominent awarding bodies such as Pearson, Highfield Qualifications & Ascentis for delivering a wide range of Language skills, Functional Skills, Employability Skills and Apprenticeships qualifications.

As schools around the world respond during COVID-19, the need for remote learning tools has never been more urgent. To make the transition to distance learning easier, we've built solutions on Azure that innovate the way educators deliver coursework. With services like Teams, Azure WVD, Development & Test Labs and Lab Services, we can tailor a solution to fit your curriculum needs, work towards a connected remote learning experience and help alleviate some of the stress in a changing education environment. Interactive Learning Students today are intuitively digital. They have grown up with almost instant access to important information and a world of connected electronics at their fingertips. However, successfully executing Distance Learning is still proving to be a big challenge for many schools. We can help with our solutions that builds on the Microsoft Azure Bot Services, Conversational AI Services, and Augmented Platforms to design an interactive learning solution that aids students on their terms, at their convenience, and keeps them engaged. Education Quality Analytics Today’s complex world puts significant pressure on universities, from acquiring funding to attracting quality staff and students. People turn to data to tackle these demands, but millions of student records, disparate data sources, and lacking institutional standards hinder their efforts. To quickly execute, analyze, and react to these challenges, companies need a simplistic and intuitive view of their data. Spyglass MTG leverages an integrated data platform on Azure. We source data from everywhere whether data resides in extractable flat files, database silos, or anywhere else, with Power BI and the Azure Data Platform to build a customized set of performance metrics and a “visual storyboard” universities can leverage to take action.
