    Regenerative Education: How well does the current education system equip young people with skills they need for work and life?

    Following on from our latest webinar focused on reimagining of the education system, we’ve been talking to young people about their experiences of school and how well they think the system prepared them for their future lives. Speaking openly with Tish Feilden, they identify the skills they feel they needed more support with, including handling finances and understanding tax returns! They also clearly identify the power of strong and supportive relationships in their development. This is something we champion at Jamie’s Farm and we will be exploring the tools needed to build positive relationships and communicate well in our next webinar on 11th July. Sign up here.

    Regenerative Education: Where to draw the line? The impact of behavioural policies

    Doubly disadvantaged? Do stricter behavioural policies adversely affect vulnerable children? In this episode of Regenerative Education, Tish discusses the implications of strict behaviour policies with Wayne from BCP Council. Wayne works to improve outcomes for children with a social worker and children in care. Here, they delve into the consequences of stricter school policy and how this can put children and teachers up against each other. At the same time, children share that they sometimes appreciate the clear boundaries that come with a strict, no-nonsense approach. Where do we draw the line?

  7. Tish with Teachers: Creating a sense of belonging

    Tish with Teachers: Creating a sense of belonging

    In this podcast, Tish Feilden talks to writer and teacher, Clare Deal about why a sense of belonging is so critical to children's development, and how we can foster this in schools. In a recent TES article, Clare Deal found that according to 2020 research, one in four young people feel they do not “belong” in school - a figure that is rising. This is a problem, the report finds, because a sense of belonging has been linked to increased motivation, higher attainment and reductions in absenteeism, as well as other positive social outcomes. Young people who “experience a sense of exclusion from school”, meanwhile, are more likely to “seek ‘belongingness’ elsewhere”. In this podcast Tish Feilden talks to Clare how we can foster a sense of belonging.

    Regenerative Education: Equipped for the future?

    Are children equipped for their futures? What teachers and employers think In November last year I wrote a blog post questioning how well our schools prepare children for their futures. In this podcast I had the pleasure of talking to ex-teacher Lloyd and current teacher Serafina about what schools are doing or could be doing to prepare young people for the working world and life’s challenges. Lloyd trained to teach English with Teach First at a large comprehensive in London before teaching in Dubai and finally becoming a consultant with Deloitte. Serafina has just completed her Teach First training as a teacher of languages at an academy in Leeds and is about to move into alternative provision. Together we explore the question whether children are being equipped for their futures.
