Training Dates Summer 09

To be decided.

P4C (PHILOSOPHY for CHILDREN) NETWORK


Six schools are part of the P4C network that meets once a term to share ideas on resources and progress in learning using the P4C approach in the classroom.

Maes Y Haul Primary Bridgend
Cwmlai Primary RCT
Garth Primary Bridgend
Edwardsville Primary MT
Twynyrodyn Community School
Bryn Celynnog Comprehensive RCT

A number of teachers in each of these schools have attended Level 1 training and are fully accredited for using the methodology in the classroom. Training has been delivered on behalf of the Mid Glamorgan EES forum by Martin Pollard from CEWC-Cymru. We have had over 40 teachers and advisers attend taster sessions and over 20 recive level 1 training in the year 2007-08.
Another 50 teachers attended tasters this October 2008 and 24 attended Level 1 training in December 2008.
The training has been funded through EES grants.

Further training dates for 2009/10 will hopefully be available once funding is secured through WAG.
