ObjectiveSuggested Approach To Review the 3 ‘Ideas sorters’ from the last workshop Provide printed copies of the current posters OR provide full scale versions of the posters to review. Remind about the approach and give some specific examples. To raise awareness of the range of stakeholders and their involvement Identify the kinds of engagements verses the stakeholders who have engaged with them. Small group analysis To propose gaps in the stakeholder map and suggest ways in which this could be addressed Small and larger group discussions To design stakeholder engagementsThe concept of a ‘Call for ideas’ is used as the basis of a wider engagement to endorse the plan. Delegates design engagements around this ideas hunt. To implement stakeholder engagements As planned above but with the outcome by next workshop that there is a mandate to continue Workshop 3 overview

Put your first BEST learner outcome here Our school now Stick here – any ideas that are already happening or have already been replaced with better ideas Stick here - any ideas that definitely would move this vision statement forward but will take more than 4 years to put in place across the whole school 4 years time Stick here - any ideas that will help take the vision forward and could be achieved by most teachers in 2 years Project #1 – Peer teaching The closer to the line, the larger the project is liked and expected to happen.

Add and/or subtract stakeholder groups required for consultation in your community. Inclusion PracticeExplanation Delegated Responsibility is given to a stakeholder group and their plan is accepted. (We would be cautious of such an approach) Co - developed The development of ideas is shared equally. Both parties have equal opportunity to influence the final solution Consulted and debated Stakeholders are consulted before a plan is written up then this plan is opened up for debate in an open meeting Consulted Stakeholders are consulted Informed Stakeholders are kept informed about the process with no clear way of them becoming involved Inclusion practices

In groups of four, agree which inclusion practice is best for each stakeholder group. Merge four groups and discuss any differences of opinions Gain school-wide agreement as to which Stakeholders will be engaged and how. Task 2

Add and/or subtract stakeholder groups required for consultation in your community. Inclusion PracticeRequirements of the engagement Delegated Provide a framework and guidance for the stakeholders who will have delegated responsibility Co - developed Produce a timetable of engagements, arrangements for student release from lessons if required, a recruitment programme and an initial presentation. Consulted and debated Produce the consultation document inviting comments, feedback the comments after the deadline, arrange an open meeting to debate Consulted Produce a consultation document, advertise it and encourage responses from all. Informed Plan an outcome from this 6i process that will be widely displayed in the school after the event Planning engagements

Divide the delegates into groups. Ideally these will be groups of 4, each group covering one inclusion Practice. Each group will plan and resource their stakeholder engagement plan Task 3

Groups feed back on their engagement plans All engagements should aim to provide ideas which can be added to the three ‘Learner Outcomes’ posters. Final check
