Networks
Many Network groups of schools across the south have secured financing for Working With Others membership and associated supply costs from inclusion, extended schools and deprivation funding. For locality groups or networks of schools, this can be a more cost effective and efficient way than allocating individual school budgets.
"At the beginning of the year one of main priorities was to develop the emotional healthy well being of the children in the school. The school had already had some training to assist the development of social skills. WWO has provided quality training.Working With Others can help your network identify and apply for funding, and put you in contact with other networks that have already successfully secured group funding.
Membership packages still include the tailor-made training and support programmes that meet the specific needs of individual schools within the network and these can be topped up with additional consultancy packages and practitioner places on the WWO Essentials Course.
The WWO Essentials Course, co-ordinator and head teacher meetings are delivered only for your network group. In this way Working With Others can meet the needs of each school and enable the family group to coordinate and build closer network links among practitioners in a local area.
It has asked staff to examine & question groupings & teaching strategies. The outcome of this is that the school is more inclusive. The children have discovered children in their class and built relationships. The ethos of care for all has definitely grownCarolyn Weston, Headteacher, Guestling Bradshaw
