Fantastic meet up for the Winifred Atwell’s blue plaque unveiling with @EnglishHeritage . We supported student research and presentations (couldn’t be prouder) and collected a range of voices. An immersive map of Winifred’s life coming soon! #VoicesMatter #YoungVoicesMatter

[Chantal MayoHollaway @CMOGeography]

Such an awesome opportunity to represent @VoicesProject_ in working with @EnglishHeritage to share Winifred Atwell’s story with students over the past month. Student representatives spoke so eloquently today at her blue plaque unveiling. #GeographyTeacher #HistoryTeacher

We have had a fantastic time working with students in London over the past two weeks with @EnglishHeritage, we hope to have something exciting to share in October… #StudentVoicesMatter

[Voices Project @VoicesProject_]

Really looking forward to seeing our chapter and reading all the other amazing contributions.

[Chantal MayoHollaway @CMOGeography]

Can’t wait!

Wonderful to see Akhera’s experiences in making change from school to today. Really inspirational for the students involved who were asked to consider what they could do and how they could do it. Including students own voices in school sustainable planning is crucia #VoicesMatter

[Chantal MayoHollaway @CMOGeography]

Wonderful day working with student ambassadors @MAADRET today for their Green Day #SustainableDRET. Our ambassadors learnt from @VoicesProject_’s Akhera about how to become a future change maker. They conducted a hero’s journey starting with their call to action as a climate change and sustainability hero, before trialing dioramas of utopian and dystopian futures to teach our Year 5 visitors. We even had a vegan and vegetarian taster menu at lunch. What a wonderful day!

It was so good to be involved in the Why voices matter now chapter. Look forward to sharing some of the work we have been doing more widely. Real team effort on this.

Exciting email today...
What is Geography Teaching, Now? publishes soon. I'm super excited to see my chapter 'Environmental Education: An Integrated Approach' in print soon!
Even better that my friend, @CMOGeography, is in the same publication ✨️
Thank you, @GeogMum @Jennnnnn_x

Great working with youth engagement @EnglishHeritage on a project for early next year. Empowering students to see that they have agency in nominating people with significant impact within their own communities. Platforming voices.

[Voices Project @VoicesProject_]

After working with English Heritage last year we are looking forward to new opportunities to work together. Watch this space.

Wonderful day supporting KPI revision in schools, being present at the wonderful Caribbean Cuisine -Superdiverse Ladywood teacher toolkit launch @unibirmingham @The_GA, and an evening with English Heritage @EnglishHeritage talking next @VoicesProject_ ideas.

[Voices Project @VoicesProject_]

Lovely to share ideas to enable students to find their own voice, actively listen to the voices of others and include authentic voice and student involvement in curriculum planning @The_GA #TeachMeet.

[Voices Project @VoicesProject_]

[Voices Project @VoicesProject_]

@AmyCaseGeog @CMOGeography Very happy to catch up with you about this.

[Voices Project @VoicesProject_]

Pondering whose data are we collecting, and how are we using it? With @CMOGeography at @fiona_616
#100ideas launch. The @VoicesProject_ is a fieldwork game changer! 👏

[Voices Project @VoicesProject_]

Do you include voices in your fieldwork? Do you collect in-depth open ended small group questions? Enabling people to be comfortable and honest about their thoughts and feeling. #100Ideas #GeographyTeacher #Fieldwork
