To facilitate a group, family, team or organisation in thinking together around a given challenge or issue here is an opportunity to experience for real the person centred, futures planning tool &ndash; <a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/maps-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;">MAP</a> (Pearpoint, Forest et. al. 1989).This is a process not a training day. Let us facilitate your planning and refocus your story whilst strengthening you and your group.This tool uses both process and graphic facilitation to help any group develop a shared vision and then to make a start on working out what they will need to do together to move towards that vision.<a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/maps-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;" target="_self">MAPS</a> are great for threshold moments.<ul style='font-size: 16px; overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 25px 0px; padding-left: 30px; caret-color: rgb(119, 119, 119); color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family: "Open Sans";'><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Is your team stuck?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Want to move on, haunted by the past cannot get any useful dialogue about the future?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Facing a challenging transition into a new school or setting?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Leaving school?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Bored with annual reviews, transition plans and review meetings?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Want to find a way of making meetings and planning feel more real and engaging?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Need an approach, which engages a young person respectfully together with his or her family and friends?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Want the ultimate visual record of the process of a meeting, which will help everyone, keep track?</li><li style="padding-bottom: 10px;">Want to problem solve and plan for the future of a small or large group, service or organisation up to the size of an LEA</li></ul><h3 id="isPasted" style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'>Learning Objectives</h3><ol><li>To create a shared vision</li><li>To talk through the story so far and reflect upon it</li><li>To name the worse nightmares that will block progress</li><li>To strengthen the group by focussing on gifts and capacity</li><li>To detail needs</li><li>To specify an Action Plan</li><li>To create a visual graphic record of the whole event</li></ol><h3 id="isPasted" style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;'>Course Content</h3>The MAP process has 6 Steps:<ol><li>The story so far. The group is required to think back over the years to describe their collective experience of changes and events over time within their settings. Stories and events are recorded on the graphic.</li><li>Building Shared Dreams. The group thinks together about what they would love to see happening for children, families and practitioners in their settings if they could have it all. If there were no constraints on time, money, resources, people or anything else what do they see happening in their imaginations? The various ideas that the group comes up with are then recorded in key words, images and colours on the <a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/maps-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;">MAP</a> graphic. The purpose of this Step is to give the group a sense of direction, their North Star, an image of the place they want to work towards.</li><li>Nightmare. In this Step, the group imagines the worst scenarios. What is the opposite of their dreams? How bad could it get? This is a shorter but powerful process that can give some groups more energy than dreaming together.</li><li>Gifts and Capacity. In this Step the group is asked to take explicit stock of their capacities and what they already have going for them as they begin working towards the vision. This is a strong reminder for any group of the wealth of knowledge and experience that is already and always in the room.</li><li>Needs. In this Step the group is invited to begin to name some of the needs they will have if they are to move forward to wards the dream and away from the nightmare.</li><li>Actions. This is the final Step in the <a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/maps-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;">MAP</a> and calls for individuals within the group to name a range of very specific actions (however small) that they will take within a definite time scale. This is not a time for declaring good intentions or suggesting good ideas for someone else to do. The purpose of this Step is to end the <a href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/product/maps-process-step-by-step-guide/" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.1s ease-in-out;">MAP</a> process with a range of clearly understood actions that carry this planning process forward into the real world.</li></ol>

Colin loves to demonstrate approaches as well as provide training with often very large groups - always with a clear focus on facilitation and inclusion of all. His love of drama and participation are as clear as his drive to revolutionise educational psychologist practice across the UK.Colin says: &lsquo;Instinctively from an early age I was against children being sent away to boarding schools and later to special schools and settings. Later I was inspired by disabled activists and Canadian and North American inclusionists who were working to change the world of education with radical innovative thinking and approaches&nbsp;&nbsp;- the work was political, social and spiritual - I was in and never looked back!&rsquo;Colin&rsquo;s career has been values driven, but also practical using applied psychology in training and real life problem solving with schools, families and individual children and young people. <h3 id="isPasted" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);">Learning Objectives</h3><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Formulate deeper&nbsp;&nbsp;understanding of learning processes for all children and adults</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Differentiate understandings and insights into emotional complexity of teaching and learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Learn&nbsp;Techniques to support teaching and learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Invite reflection on importance of relationships for effective learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Gain key phrases, key questions and key processes to support teaching and learning with adults and children</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Appraise&nbsp;&nbsp;different psychological models of learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Conjecture on how to inspire deeper learning and motivation in students</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">To create insights into thinking of exceptional teachers teaching complex skills</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Differentiate &nbsp;inclusive insights and reflections on the learning of all children whatever their barriers may be</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Critique psychological models of learning and how they can be applied in a teaching context&nbsp;</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Investigate how to inspire deeper learning and motivation in students&nbsp;</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Formulate insights into the emotional complexity of teaching and learning</li></ul> <h3 style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);">Who Is It For ?</h3>Any Teacher, Psychologist or Educator who wishes to understand the learning processes of children or adults<h3 id="isPasted" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);">Course Content</h3><ol id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Fun, engagement and interest are key ingredients of the the most memorable learning.</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Imitation - (Bandura) Social learning theory- we can assume that 80%of learning is done by imitating others around us in the social world.

Diversity & Inclusion

How do people learn?

Local authorities are being encouraged to seek the views of young people in relation to the services they receive. Schools and the whole range of support services (e.g. behaviour support, youth offending teams, social services, CAMHS etc.) are being expected to routinely ask young people for their views. This goes beyond involving young people in plans that concern them e.g care plans, individual education plans, pastoral support plans etc.

Local authorities are being encouraged to seek the views of young people in relation to the services they receive. Schools and the whole range of support services (e.g. behaviour support, youth offending teams, social services, CAMHS etc.) are being expected to routinely ask young people for their views. This goes beyond involving young people in plans that concern them e.g care plans, individual education plans, pastoral support plans etc. This training will focus on how young people can be effectively engaged in giving their views and will present a model for use in evaluating services to young people based on the concept of resilience. This model enables young people to be clear about what has helped and hindered them in being able to overcome difficulties. It also provides a framework for evaluating the extent to which services are reducing risk and increasing protective factors to enable young people to develop the resilience.

In this practical workshop session we will explore ways of including pupils who have been labelled as being on the autism spectrum. The session will be values based and practical and will aim to allow the sharing of experiences and good practice as well promoting innovative approaches to inclusion through the design of best practice. Parental perspectives and experiences will also be explored. This is not a &lsquo;medical model&rsquo; day on autism. Our motto for the day is &lsquo;People do things for a Reason (and the reason isn&rsquo;t autism).&rsquo; We make full use of first hand accounts of the experience of autism &ndash; the autobiographies &ndash; to deepen participants&rsquo; understanding of what it means to be labeled &lsquo;autistic&rsquo;

AUTISM: HOW TO INCLUDE CHILDREN IN MAINSTREAM SETTINGS

In this course we deepen participants understanding of systemic racism and the spectrum of privilege. It challenges the participants to examine their behaviours and take close looks at some of the views they have held since a very young age, e.g. this area is a &ldquo;bad&rdquo; area, because it has a high proportion of black/brown people living in it, or that young black men in tracksuits are &ldquo;thugs&rdquo;. We think about where these messages come from and how people are indoctrinated by the media.<h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Course Category</h3>InclusionTeam BuildingLeadershipEmotional needs<h3 fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;">Description</h3>In this course we deepen participants understanding of systemic racism and the spectrum of privilege.

We think about where these messages come from and how people are indoctrinated by the media.&nbsp;We explore the reasons why white people are so defensive when it comes to talking about race. We discuss having racial biases and the implications of them, such as unconsciously insulting people around us in the workplace. When we become aware of how our behaviours can affect people, we then look for solutions.&nbsp;The course is designed for groups of professionals to come together as a team to try and take responsibility for the racism that goes on in their workplace &ndash; empowering the leadership to have difficult conversations with team members and create a paradigm shift across the entire organisation.&nbsp;Please come with an open mind, and you might be surprised at what you find out.

Want a really creative, effective, inclusive team?

In this practical and engaging workshop there is input on team building, problem solving as a team, improving communication and handling conflict. This is participatory day of paper, pens, graphics, music and activity. There are no PowerPoint slides or even a projector and screen!

We keep the focus on interpersonal processes for getting the best out of the team. Making teams both creative and inclusive is fully explored and processes for maximising this examined. Effective leadership and management, which can transform teamwork through collaboration and consensus-building processes is covered.

We refocus the team on its capacities and gifts as well as give insights into what to do when individuals are off track.

The Native American medicine wheel guides us through four quadrants of leadership, vision, community and management.Harrison Owen in his work on &lsquo;Open Space Technology&rsquo; depicts the ancient Medicine Wheel (Owen, 2003). This is derived from centuries of tradition among First Nation Americans and has informed many cultures in different ways. We have found this an extremely powerful metaphor for understanding the process of team and organisational change and renewal.

The wheel of change begins in the north with a leading idea, for us &ndash; there is a better way of creating a team for inclusion. Travelling clockwise to the east we develop a shared vision of what this could look like in our setting, school or community. Then moving south we ask who needs to come with us on the journey. We wish to take as many community members along with us as we can. In an Early Years setting , this would mean enrolling the support of manager, the wider staff group, parents and ultimately children. Finally, at the west, we manage and implement the idea. We take action and turn the inclusive team into reality.

The cycle of this medicine wheel is an excellent way to view change processes for any team, organisation or community. When we contemplate change, the risk is always that we will jump prematurely from the big ideas (leadership) to practice (management) and ignore the other two important phases of creating vision and engaging the wider community.

When the going gets tough and the inclusion of a child or young person is beginning to seem extremely difficult if not impossible many will conclude that the child should no longer be present. We would like to challenge this. Why do we move so quickly to assuming the child is in the wrong place? Surely the real question should not be &lsquo;do they belong here?&rsquo; &ndash; but rather &ndash; &lsquo;what team support is needed here for this to work?&rsquo;

Or even more fundamental, &lsquo;who needs a team around them at this time?&rsquo;
 Who needs the team? Who is struggling with the inclusion most?

Is it the young person, their practitioner or teacher, their headteacher, setting manager, their parent or even a member of the local support services?

Whatever the answer a team may need to be built, rallied or reformed. The nature of and number of that team will depend upon the situation. Diversity of membership will most surely be important to strengthen the quality of the support and of the ideas generated. Use radical rethinking when creating a new team or when revitalising an existing one.

Creating effective teams for inclusion requires a courageous capacity for understanding and nurturing change both within the team and with those who the team work with.

This is a workshop focused on getting the welcome right for children who are starting for the first time at a new school when we know the welcome will be difficult. Perhaps they have been excluded from elsewhere, they are new to this culture, they have complex needs or they are just very different or highly anxious?

This is a particularly valuable process for those looking to enhance their leadership and facilitation skills or to build such processes into their school or team approach to complex pupils.&lsquo;The question is not should they be here anymore. Now it&rsquo;s how can we figure out how best to include them?&rsquo;In this practical workshop session we will explore ways of problem solving around complex situations. The session will be practical and will aim to allow the sharing of experiences and good practice as well promoting innovative approaches to problem solving around systemic, organisational as well as individual inclusion issues.Behaviour problems, relationship challenges and personnel dilemmas can all be worked on with these team oriented problem solving processes.We will introduce participants to a powerful and effective approach.The <a fr-original-style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245);" href="https://inclusive-solutions.com/problem-solving/#circleofadults" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); -webkit-user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: inherit; cursor: pointer;">&lsquo;Circles of Adults&rsquo;</a> approach addresses the need for a problem solving process that is able to take an in-depth look at meeting the emotional needs that commonly underlie challenging behaviour in schools. The approach is co-facilitated and is designed to enable the participation of teacher teams to reach a deeper understanding of a young person and to evolve a set of hypotheses and emerging strategies that better accommodate to unmet emotional and learning needs. The approach takes at least 90 minutes and is intended for use with the most challenging young people, those at high risk of being permanently excluded from the regular school system.<h3 fr-original-style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;' id="isPasted" style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px; box-sizing: border-box;'>Learning Objectives</h3><ol fr-original-style='font-size: 16px; overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 25px 0px; padding-left: 30px; caret-color: rgb(119, 119, 119); color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family: "Open Sans";' style='font-size: 16px; overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 25px 0px; padding-left: 30px; caret-color: rgb(119, 119, 119); color: rgb(119, 119, 119); font-family: "Open Sans"; box-sizing: border-box;'><li fr-original-style="" id="isPasted" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Increased confidence regarding problem solving around inclusion in mainstream settings</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Access to a wider range of practical strategies and techniques to impact on communication, realtionship, learning and behaviour issues</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Learn new problem solving processes</li></ol><h3 fr-original-style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px;' id="isPasted" style='overflow-wrap: break-word; margin: 30px 0px 25px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 400; color: rgb(71, 199, 245); font-size: 32px; line-height: 38px; box-sizing: border-box;'>Course Content</h3>The course answers the questions :<ul fr-original-style=" color: rgb(119, 119, 119);" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119); box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How to set up and run a Circle of Adults process</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How can we work out how to include this child best?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How can we understand what lies beneath their behaviour?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Is there a more structured way to run this meeting?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Can we explore the emotional impact the person is having on us and still agree strategies?</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How can I get unstuck from this problem?</li></ul>

We reflect on our practises and discuss our experiences of home practice. We learn about aspects of stress reduction and the neuroscience of mindfulness and complete a new practice each week. The mindfulness practices include guided meditations and some gentle movement.&nbsp;What is home practice?&nbsp;Each week we learn a new practice together during the session and participants are given an audio recording of that practice to complete at home. This is because it takes 8 weeks of consistent practice for the benefits of mindfulness to take place. To really get the most out of this course, participants are advised to make space for home practice. (20 - 40 minutes a day)&nbsp;&nbsp;Please note that although mindfulness is therapeutic in nature, it is not therapy and should not be used as a replacement for professional therapy or medication. A pre-assessment is required for all participants to ensure your safety and suitability for the course. We aim to be inclusive to all and may need to discuss your mental health and well-being before being accepted. Your information will only be viewed by the facilitator and will be kept confidential.&nbsp;

<h2 id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What is the course about?</h2>
If you mix up your own glazes, whether just picking recipes from books and web sites or running your own R&amp;D program, this course will help you by showing you what makes glazes leach, or not be food safe, or craze, and what you can do about it.
Much of the content of this course was in the previous version of the Product Safety course, but I have now taken it out into a separate course as many on the Product Safety course do not mix their own glazes. This also allows me to go into the glaze chemistry in a bit more depth.&nbsp;
Six weekly sessions, 19:00 &ndash; 20:30 Also recorded and put onto the course web page so you can view them at other times
The course begins with a quick recap of glaze chemistry and structure. It then looks at how glazes can be attacked in acidic (food) and alkaline (dishwasher) environments, and how you can make your glazes more stable. This includes using tools like Stull and limit formulae, as well as testing glazes in the studio and in the laboratory.&nbsp;
To consider the food safety of glazes, we look at which components may be toxic and at what levels, and combine this with our work on glaze stability. We also look at food safety legislation .
We also consider crazing, to determine in which circumstances it may or may not be acceptable, what causes it, and methods by which you can avoid it.
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What will I achieve?</h2>
By the end of this course you should be able to:
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand what is meant by glaze stability</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Know how to use like the UMF, limit formulae, Stull chart and other guidelines to assess potential problems</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the mechanisms of glaze leaching in both alkaline (dishwasher) and acidic (food) environments</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand which materials in glazes are potentially toxic, and how likely it is that a glaze will be toxic</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Know how to test glazes in the studio, and sending glazes to a laboratory for testing</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Take a glaze formula and improve its stability</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the causes of crazing</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Take a glaze formula and increase or decrease its tendency to craze</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the legislation and standards covering food safety and testing (UK, EU and USA)</li></ul>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?</h2>
Intermediate to advanced. Some basic knowledge of glaze chemistry and glaze formulation is required.
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?</h2>
The course is primarily run through the weekly online sessions, which are a live lecture where you can also ask questions or get a discussion going. These are recorded and put on the course web page for those who cannot make the course times due to time zones or other commitments, or for those who want to replay them.
Additional material that you may wish to explore is on the course website. This will help you go deeper into the subject matter, should you wish to do so.
There will also be a discussion period towards the end of the course, where we can discuss any of the course material or any more general questions you may have. The date and time will be set up at the start of the course, so as many people as possible can participate even if unable to attend the live sessions.
In addition, the course has an online forum that you can use at any time.
There will be suggestions for you to test some of your pieces and glazes between sessions.
