Training courses and workshops
OWNNE regularly run global dimension workshops and networks, our upcoming events
are listed below. We can also adapt the content of a workshop to work directly
with an individual school or cluster of schools. We can also be commissioned to
deliver the workshops for a specific local authority.
Feedback from participants at previous workshops:
· “An excellent day that has supported me very much and provoked much thinking...
listening to the views of teachers and facilitators was very valuable”
· “What a real CPD occasion! I was challenged, shown an impressive way forward,
encouraged to participate and work collaboratively with a great group of others”
