What will I learn?
This course is designed to look at why belonging is so fundamental, and to introduce the work of our Belonging Project action research:
- Why belonging is fundamental to human development – what’s the evidence.
- The causes of executive function differences – it’s no one’s fault.
- How society’s unconscious bias and judgement of executive function skills challenges make us all (and some more than others) feel shame for something beyond our control.
- Why schools are fundamental in working to redress society’s bias.
- How community leads (learner, parent, staff) can conduct action research on belonging, that can help create truly inclusive school environments.
- Details of support and funding available to participate in the Belonging Project pilot.
