Are you care experienced and studying a postgraduate taught degree? Please consider participating in my PhD research. You can express an interest by filling in the Google Form here: https://t.co/wPlGuMWcMf
@professor_dave I know nothing about your field (doing an education PhD with social work professsional background) but I can see you are rightly shining light on an aruguably murky issue that warrants more scrutiny. Please keep calling this stuff out! 💪
I had a lovely day today thinking about the synergy of education & social work research with Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Thanks to @learnventurer and @sao_sarah for organising!
Are you care-experienced? Are you going to uni this autumn? Would you like £3000? Are you seeing this before the closing date of 31st May?
Where do you apply? Right here, people 😀: https://t.co/V4QIkSpJJA
Is there an election today by any chance?! The door has not stopped all day and I’ve never had so many leaflets! Good luck to the candidates, I’ve voted now! #Brighton#RingDoorbellOnDoNotDisturb#Elections2024
One of the most thought-provoking stories of those who lived as children in the Gressenhall Workhouse. In this case, we find out some of what happened afterwards. I’ve posted about this before, but it deserves a second outing today.
📢Special Issue📢I am thrilled to announce the release of our BERJ Special Issue on 'Theorising educational engagement, transitions and outcomes for care-experienced people'. We were lucky as editors to receive so many interesting contributions! Please take a look & share (1/2)
@_LisaCherry @jamie_crabb Yum… again! The tea, cakes, sandwiches and scones were a treat. But the bigger treat was the couple of hours in lovely company with great chat ❤️
So great to see the lovely Jennifer again here, rightly celebrating this amazing achievement. I sat opposite her for a year in the office 15-20 years ago and am one of so many that benefitted from her expertise, kindness and pragmatism. Congrats Jennifer!
At the end of #SocialWorkWeek2024 - celebrating 50 years in social work by the powerhouse that is Jennifer. She is the embodiment of what we aspire to - compassionate; kind; committed. @BrightonHoveCC @TStibbs @VirtualSch_BHCC https://t.co/jF3d9uL4j4
I’m so sorry to see this. BYC undoubtedly had funding and, at times, ethical challenges. But it was committed to the value of young people’s direct voices in policy development. Thank you BYC, especially those that served without personal benefit. I hope to see the gap filled.
The British Youth Council is sad to announce its permanent closure after more than 75 years of championing the voices of young people.
