REPORT FROM THE CHAIR

The backdrop to financial year 2021-22 was in which global processes and events have provided both hope and challenge. While the UK emerged from the worst of the pandemic, the cost-of-living crisis began to deepen and the spectre of global-scale conflict emerged once more. In this context, Leeds DEC, and other centres in the national CODEC global learning network, have continued to raise awareness about these issues, and the global interdependencies that are at their heart in schools and communities. The centre has delivered a programme based around its core values of justice, fairness and equity. It has strengthened its CPD programme for schools, developed new curriculum projects and workshops to support pupils and teachers address the climate crisis, and helped young people gain insights into change and continuity, and the importance that core values, like compassion and care, play across the generations.

The DEC is operating in a new financial climate. The UK, alone in western and central Europe, provides no government funding to support global learning. Fortunately, over the past 40 years the DEC has developed a unique set of global learning skills and contacts. It has longstanding, in-depth expertise in areas such as global inequalities, migration, intercultural understanding and the climate ecological crises. It has experience of designing curricula, materials, professional development to support such learning, and evaluating the impact of such learning, at primary and secondary levels in the UK and overseas. During the past year this breadth and depth of experience has enabled DEC staff to develop and contribute to the wide range of innovative services and projects to foster awareness and action that are outlined below. As ever, Trustees thank DEC workers and volunteers for their professionalism and energy throughout the year. with which they have contributed to the many projects and partnerships outlined below.

With receipt of funds in arrears from several partners, the financial picture this year has been positive. However, trustees remain mindful of the need for the DEC to continue to articulate and publicise the comprehensive global learning skills and capacities that it can offer to interested organisations and charities, locally and further afield.

Dr. Martin Wedell Chair, Leeds DEC

CLIMATE ACTION LEEDS

This year saw the start of a 5 year Lottery-funded project which aims to engage and join up communities and individuals across Leeds to deliver transformative change to address the climate emergency. Leeds DEC’s role in this multi-agency project is to engage and enable schools to deliver a meaningful climate curriculum across school. We will be working with other ‘transition’ partners, especially, the youth partner, Angel House, to achieve this and help young people feel they can take meaningful actions and that their voices are heard. In partnership with Moor Allerton Hall Primary , and other schools we have been publicising this amongst schools across the city and planned a climate conference for Head Teachers at Leeds University in May 2022, and another one with Leeds Learning Alliance in the autumn. We also trained schools in the CAL Otley Hub and have plans to work with Seacroft and other Hubs in the coming year.

CLIMATE CURRICULUM 4 CLIMATE ACTION

The first full year of this Erasmus+ funded project saw partners in Ireland, Germany and Turkey begin to systematically embed teaching about Climate Change throughout their curriculum. Key teachers in all schools took part in both Global Teacher Award and Climate Curriculum CPD courses run by Leeds DEC staff. It has also enabled teachers in different year groups audit schemes of work and plan new teaching activities covering agreed climate learning outcomes. The transnational team began to review the draft Climate Curriculum Leeds DEC has produced, to ensure it fits with their national education contexts. Future work will involve completing the development of a new updated Climate Curriculum Framework, a guide on how to teach about climate change in a way that inspires hope and action, a toolkit with resources, and website to disseminate to school networks in the 4 countries. We invited partner schools to a first project meeting in Leeds, hosted at Moor Allerton Hall Primary and timed to coincide with our Climate Education Conference in for May 2022. The British Council has given an extension until June 23 to complete the project as the start of the project was hampered by COVID restrictions.

“My vision is to teach about the climate change at school and to promote about the climate change effects for future.” Teacher from partner school in Turkey.

HEROES LOCAL AND GLOBAL

Leeds DEC were funded by the #iwill Fund (through Leeds Community Foundation) to work with 2 schools in South Leeds on this practical citizenship project, in September and Oct 2021. The project was designed to inspire children to take action to improve their community and the wider world through learning about children in different countries who were active and then meeting local change makers. 60 pupils at Greenmount Primary and 12 pupils at Ingram Road Primary were involved in actions varying from writing letters to policy makers to doing litter picks on their street.

It was very well received by teachers, governors and pupils.

"The engaging and purposeful lessons placed pupils at the centre of their learning and provided them with opportunities to be inspired, motivated, reflective, and ambitious in how they could make the community that they live in (and the world) a better place.

This project has been more than I had hoped for and one that I hope will long continue, bringing local communities together through the power of belonging, inspiration and teamwork " Class teacher, Greenmount primary

“We had a lot of fun together, realising that important issues are tackled by people like us and not just by very serious and important people.” Governor, Ingram Road Primary

INTERGENERATIONAL LINKING

This project also saw its first full year in 2021-22. It aims to establish 10 links between schools and care homes to create self-sustaining and meaningful connections between younger and older people.

11 links between schools and care homes have been fostered through this project, from across the city. Kick-off workshops were delivered by the centre in all schools to enable pupils to learn more about the experiences and perspectives of older people, and for older people to have the opportunity to work with and share activities with young people. The children were invited to play with Meccano, dress up in 1950’s clothing and learn about foods and household objects from the BRITISH COUNCIL'S CONNECTING CLASSROOMS FOR 1940s-1960s. Children also learnt about Pupils dressing up as part of their wrinkles as a sign of adventure, wisdomGLOBAL LEARNING (CCGL) 'Thinking about Intergenerational and laughter and wrote postcards to say The centre has continued to work with the British Council CCGL international linking' workshop. hello to their new care home friends. The partnerships program, offering consultancy support advice and training to schools older people then wrote messages back, wishing to establish develop partnership with another school in a range of countries which the children loved receiving!

INTERGENERATIONAL LINKING CONTD

Building on these initial exchanges, Christmas cards, valentines flowers, plants and artwork have also been sent between school pupils and care home residents. Some schools organised Zoom calls where they sang each other songs, and meet-ups, with groups of pupils visiting care homes to plant bulbs together. The project has benefitted from a very active advisory group, whose feedback and ideas have helped shape its success. The project has been made possible through the #iwill Fund, a joint investment between The National Lottery Community Fund and the Department of Digital, Culture, Media & Sport, in partnership with The Dunhill Medical Trust My Home Life and The Linking Network.

"This intergenerational linking project has got children thinking in a different way. Now they’re thinking how much knowledge older people have and what they can learn from them too”.

SOCIAL ACTION DIPLOMA

The centre completed teaching on the pioneering Level 3 Social Action Diploma at Leeds City College. This ground-breaking university access course enables young people and working adults to develop a theoretical understanding of social action and relate it to their own work practice or live projects and the work of 3rd sector organisations. The course helped build students’ confidence and progress into new areas of work. In the case of one student, they were able to return to a related area of work after a considerable break.

“Absolutely loved the course and so sad it's over 😢. I hope in one way or another I can continue education in social action and keep developing my skills to make long lasting social change.” Gemma Doherty, student and 3rd sector community worker.

LINKING NETWORK

The Linking Network is a national scheme to support schools and communities foster intercultural understanding and develop a positive, cohesive ethos between communities by helping children, young people and adults to explore identity, celebrate diversity, promote community and champion equality. In this post-pandemic year, the programme has brought together 7 pairs of classes from demographically diverse schools over a year-long period within the city, providing pupils the chance to broaden their perspectives about the lives of other people that they would not normally come into contact with. The Linking network is funded by Department of Education, the Department of Housing, Communities Local Government and the Pears Foundation.

“Linking provides us with a real opportunity to think outside our school community. This is so important for our pupils particularly post pandemic, and they have relished the chance to meet other children from our brilliant city.” Joanne Parker, teacher, Weetwood Primary School

SERVICES

WORKSHOPS

This year we added two brand new workshops to our offer – these are: ‘Local People Global Stories’ and ‘Thinking about Intergenerational Linking’. Feedback from pupils and teachers is as positive as ever. Bookings of the workshops continued to grow as more schools discover the benefits they bring to their pupils. The centre delivered 58 workshops enriching the curriculum, engaging pupils whatever their background and bringing dynamic new perspectives to over 2200 primary and secondary students in 19 schools. Our most popular workshops were ‘Be cocoa farmer’ (which we ran 20 times) ‘Amazing Mexico’ and ‘Local People Global Stories’ workshop.

“It gave us more knowledge about how to stop making racist prejudgements" Year 6 pupil about our Local People Global Stories workshop. (Photo below of pupils engaging with the LPGS exhibition. )

CPD AND TRAINING

The centre ran 11 face-to-face and online courses this year, training 155 teachers in West Yorks, and, further across England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Germany, Turkey, Ireland and Zimbabwe. We ran a face-to-face climate course for 16 teachers from 8 Otley primary schools in Autumn 2021.

Climate curriculum blended learning courses.

73 teachers completed on blended learning climate courses. Following the continuing success of our secondary climate curriculum CPD course, we created a new primary schools course. We used this to train the whole staff team St Helens College in Hillingdon , and, as a result, the school are embedding climate change across the entire curriculum.

“Thoroughly enjoyed the course and I have learnt so much - super resources for us to use too.” Shirley Drummond, Headteacher

Additionally we ran blended learning courses for Allerton High School and Coop Academy Leeds.

Shared Ground training

Migration continues to be a controversial issue in the UK (and across the wider world), and we were very happy to partner with sister centre Global Learning London to deliver their innovative and thought-provoking Shared Ground training to 28 teachers from 5 different Primary and Secondary schools (Otley All Saints, Kirkstall St.

Stephens, Abbey Grange Academy, Bishop Young Academy, Lightcliffe

Academy) This course helps schools prepare students with the knowledge and understanding they need to appreciate our culturally diverse society and challenge racism and prejudice. With climate migration forecast to grow exponentially, this course, which both explores the theory and practical teaching, is hugely useful.

CPD AND TRAINING

Global Teacher Award

The centre delivered 2 GTA courses this year, an online course to 8 teachers and a face-to-face course to a whole primary staff team. The British Council validated course, which has been running as part of the Connecting Classrooms programme, continues to be really popular with teachers.

"Thank you very very much for the Global Teacher Award course - it has been incredibly interesting and thought-provoking and has given me loads of ideas to apply to my own practice and for the wider school. It was really well structured and I really enjoyed it!”

Verity Morgan, participant on our online GTA course in February

Because of its experience of developing online courses, Leeds DEC has now been commissioned by CODEC to develop a brand new Introduction to Global Learning online course, which will act as an pre-GTA introductory course. The course has been planned and will come online in early 2023.

Connecting Classrooms for Global Learning (CCGL): British Council Equitable and Sustainable partnerships programme

In this final year of the “UK aid”-funded British Council CCGL programme, Leeds DEC continued to act as a Global Learning CPD trainer and advisor. As well as delivering the GTA course, the centre ran a Supported Partnerships CPD programme. This very successful 4-session zoom training focused on Climate Change and enabled teachers in 8 schools in Zimbabwe and the UK to share and better understand the challenges of the climate crisis and its impact on school communities, including the realities of the impact of climate change on food security in Masvingo province Zimbabwe. We were able to use innovative methodologies to capture their ideas perspectives on padlet and jamboard as they spoke, giving participants the opportunity to build a shared picture and understanding of the climate emergency and how to teach about it. We also supported a group of schools, including Hunslet St Marys and Bramhope Primary to create and deliver their own CCGL project.

PARTNERSHIPS

The centre has continued to develop partnerships with a range of other organisations including Leeds City Council, Leeds Learning Alliance, Leeds Trinity University, Leeds, Angel House, Climate Action Leeds Transition partners , The Linking Network, the National Consortium of Development Education Centres, and partners in Europe.

CONSULTANCY

Over the last three years, Leeds DEC has been acting as a consultant for the British Council, the European Get Up & Goals Project; and local schools on global learning, and in particular on climate change, climate justice, migration and intercultural understanding. This year we have set up a Climate Schools Consultancy Service and will be working to promote this in the coming year.

RESOURCES

The DEC provide a range of resources for schools and teachers on climate change, intercultural understanding, migration and the Sustainable Development Goals through its training and on its website.

THANKS TO...

Our staff and volunteers, including our supportive Trustees and DEC partners who have worked with us over the last year.

Particular thanks go to Louise Hannon for setting up the Intergenerational Linking project so well before moving onto a new national Intergenerational role at the Linking Network.

“It has given residents absolute joy! They can’t believe young children want to learn about them, and are delighted when we get cards and questions from them.”
