This best practice webinar considered practical ideas for academic enrichment activities in secondary schools that develop key skills and effectively prepare students for higher education. Hosted by SecEd in partnership with our friends at The Brilliant Club , our expert panel identified the skills that are most important for further and higher education and the modern workplace before discussing how enrichment activities and learning beyond the curriculum can teach and enhance these skills. We considered skills including critical-thinking, independent learning, self-efficacy, oracy, and other so-called “soft skills” that are vital to student progression and outcomes. The webinar considered how enrichment activities can target disadvantaged students, including Pupil Premium, and open opportunities. We then drew on the experience and lessons learned from The Brilliant Club’s work with schools (the education charity works with almost 900 schools and 20,000 students a year). The webinar also considered the forthcoming curriculum reforms. The Department for Education, in its response to the Curriculum and Assessment Review, has confirmed it will be working “on the development of a new set of benchmarks, to set out the steps every school and college can take to provide every child with access to a strategically planned and ambitious enrichment offer”. Ofsted will also be taking account of these benchmarks once they have been developed. As such, we discussed what we might expect from these benchmarks, the tenets of an effective enrichment programme, and what schools need to consider to ensure their offer to students is broad, balanced and ultimately effective.

The Currency of Listening Voices in Milton Keynes shaping the future of financial education Hosted by Santander UK , Twinkl and the Foundation for Education Development (FED) Help Shape the Future of Financial Education Across the UK, conversations about curriculum, assessment, inclusion and life readiness are growing louder. As the national Curriculum and Assessment Review continues, important questions are being asked about how well education prepares children and young people for modern life — including financial wellbeing, confidence and life readiness. The Currency of Listening is a UK-wide listening programme bringing together teachers, school and college leaders, parents, practitioners, communities and young people to explore the realities of financial education in practice.

We are excited to announce the seventh biennial Children and Childhoods Conference! Building on a successful legacy, the Children and Childhoods Conference theoretically and empirically engages with children’s lives, across disciplines, to reflect the diverse nature of contemporary childhoods. We continue to uphold our inclusive ethos and aim to bring together academics, pedagogues, practitioners, policymakers, early career and postgraduate researchers and students. DAY 1 Crime, Risk, Safeguarding and Social Harm Day One focuses on how children and young people encounter, navigate, and are shaped by systems of crime, justice, safeguarding, and social regulation. We welcome theoretical, empirical and practice-based contributions that critically engage with issues such as but not limited to: youth justice, safeguarding and protection, children’s rights, social harm, marginalisation, family and community contexts, lived experiences of adversity, risk and resilience, and professional or institutional responses. Interdisciplinary approaches especially those drawing from criminology, childhood and youth studies, social work, education, sociology, psychology, and law are strongly encouraged. DAY 2 Childhoods at Crossroads Day Two contextualises childhoods on the edge in global perspectives of childhoods lived in an era of intensifying childhood poverty, political instability and rapid technological change. Prolonged stagnation in global economic development has contributed to rising unemployment and a widening cost-of-living crisis, both of which have intensified childhood poverty in many regions. International, regional and domestic political instability—together with outbreaks of violence—has directly and often lethally affected children and young people, inflicting lasting harm on their families, physical safety, and psychological well-being. A more detailed agenda will be provided closer to the conference.
