Denmark faces major challenges with dissatisfaction among young people in education and a lack of labor for the welfare areas. But what if we could solve both problems simultaneously? 🤓Over the next few years, we'll be tackling these societal challenges in a groundbreaking project with SOSU Østjylland, Aarhus Municipality, and CompanYoung (Elevaid) 🤝Through early and preventive measures, StudentPulse is helping SOSU Østjylland identify and support at-risk students through check-ins about their well-being. This gives the school the opportunity to discover and initiate well-being initiatives that can help vulnerable and at-risk students to complete their education. 💪 The goal? A substantial increase of 150 graduating students by 2026! 🎓 Read more about the project below 👇

Dehegemonizing Education locally (at Kinder Republic, Sri Lanka's first and only Democratic School) and globally (at Rights-Centric Education)

From "Education for Human Capital Development" to "Education for Flourishing"Don Berg shared this article by Frank Martela on the movement to replace HCD with Flourishing as the central aim of education, which is really refreshing because HCD is a wolf in sheep's clothing that is accelerating economic inequality and oppression of vulnerable people in the world (despite claiming to enrich people)Two observations:1. Unfortunately, this article is still based on the premise of the compulsory schooling model of education (focused on professional teachers responsible for the delivery of a curriculum developed by some authorities) which can never work. That model arose from the precursor of HCD, where states wanted to "mould" obedient citizens who would be capable workers. HCD merely refined the latter part of that goal. There are different ways of supporting the educational choices of people (especially young people) that respects their agency, autonomy, consent and dignity2. The article briefly mentions a Human Rights based approach, but this is a really strong lever. I believe every treaty in international Human Rights law is supportive of human flourishing. And because states have ratified those treaties they are obliged to respect, protect and strive to realize those rights. That is what we are seeking to do with Rights-Centric Education; to not only have concern for children's rights TO education, but also their rights IN educationhttps://lnkd.in/gCxW-gc4

The commodification of public education in Australia is pervasive. In Australia education tends to be assessed in terms of earning power, and the contribution to societal inclusiveness ignored. Should it not be a fundamental human right like clean drinking water? https://lnkd.in/dqavWBav

Ever pondered the idea of a fresh start in education? A seismic shift might just be on the horizon for UK schools. 🚀 Excellence in education—a term we're all passionate about, but how do we transition from mere words to action?Enter the stage, Sir Kevan Collins, a beacon of progress, poised to advise Labour on steering schools towards a brighter future. Bridget Phillipson of Labour envisions a dynamic change from the get-go, with Collins at the helm. Why does this matter, you ask? It's all about unlocking the fullest potential within our classrooms.Imagine a scenario where teacher shortages and student absenteeism are tackled head-on. That reality could be closer than you think. Labour's bidding for a complete overhaul, planning to recruit thousands of new educators as a starting point.Collins—who famously stepped down as the catch-up tsar due to funding disagreements—brings to the table an ethos of higher standards and enriched curriculums. It's about ensuring every child, regardless of their start in life, has access to the knowledge and skills to succeed. 🌟In a sector where the dedication of teaching professionals is pivotal, this drive for high standards resonates with our own ethos at Rikama Education. We value providing a nurturing support system for our teachers, enabling them to deliver exceptional education without the burnout.Looking for a meaningful teaching role that aligns with your desire for work/life harmony? Reach out to us. We're all about long-term and permanent positions because stability matters—for you and for the students you inspire.Let's talk education, opportunities, and finding your place in shaping the future.

Join us online when we: Place Education in Telford Under the Spotlight How can we understand what works well in Telford, align more and fill the gaps in maximizing everyone reaching their capability in Telford.Join this online conversation 11th June 1pm Why join us.....As we know there are people and organisations that are already working to improve aspiration or develop skills to further opportunity for everyone (all ages) in the borough to maximise capability and take control over their own lives. We understand also that working in partnership is a vision of many organisations, for some its about placing the health and wellbeing of the child at the centre of schooling, becoming a Marmot Borough; reducing absenteeism, bringing down the number of NEETS, improving skills for adults and forming greater collaboration in order to ensure education understands the needs of all. Aspiration is also a part of many local organisations’ strategies; with clear objectives to improve lives, there are also organisations who already collaborate well, meetings that report internally and externally, groups and people that support each other. There are those undertaking research, reaching the community, carrying out locality work; delivering support and providing services to raise aspiration in younger people, children and adults for them to have better outcomes in life to unlock their potential-But the big questions remain where are we working well together, do we work well together or are we in sector silos, are we viewing the vision from all perspectives, are we including all those affected by an education that does not meet their complex needs and where are the gaps? Are we having cross-sector talks about societal impact including the move to home education, the increases in absenteeism or why some people do not recognise they have skills to bring to the workplace. #education #skills #telford #onlineTo read more or register click here: https://lnkd.in/eEfw-hJM

https://rb.gy/qnkip9 Education requires systemic change, and part of that change has to be that Ofsted stops being so close with government and takes a more holistic, informed view of the education system.

Education is central to Australian society and economic development, but our educational outcomes, particularly in STEM, have been declining. Extensive testing has proven this approach's value for students and teachers.Just like health where investment in prevention and early diagnosis delivers remarkable long-term health and aged care savings, investing in our education systems will deliver long-term increases in productivity AND long-term reductions in welfare payments, crime rates, and healthcare costs. We can only hope that our Governments have a similar perspective and adequately funds these initiatives.I would love to hear from educators and education researchers about the applicability of this approach beyond Years 1 - 6 and to vocational education in particular.

It is a disservice to society when children's talents remain dormant due to a lack of adequate support.Children's social class is a key predictor in determining their educational achievements, with data consistently highlighting the performance gaps between children from lower socioeconomic backgrounds and their peers in Wales. These disparities underscore the critical need to address the untapped potential and unmet needs of children from low socioeconomic backgrounds.Insufficient educational attainment can restrict future economic opportunities, perpetuating a cycle of limited social mobility across generations. It is imperative that society ensures children receive the necessary support to tap into their talents and break free from the constraints imposed by economic disparities. The undeniable correlation between economic background and attainment serves as a driving force in our mission.To kick things off, we are providing assistance to several children in Cardiff who receive Free School Meals through specialised exam bootcamps with the support of local companies. Our goal is to support these children in their exam preparations, giving them the best opportunity to excel academically and pave the way for their future career paths.If your company is interested in contributing, whether on a large or small scale, to help support our cause, please get in touch!#Socialmobility #education #Wales #closingthegap

Throughout my career in education, I’ve witnessed the transformative power of the Pupil Premium firsthand. This funding mechanism has been instrumental in bridging the attainment gaps—a testament to its effectiveness within the diverse school communities I’ve had the privilege to serve. These schools, despite being nestled in areas faced with significant socio-economic challenges, have consistently demonstrated high performance. It’s crucial to understand that such challenges should not, and do not, serve as excuses. Instead, they highlight the acute need for additional, well-targeted support.Education, as Professor Ebrahim Adia, PhD, SFHEA, vividly illustrates, has the potential to act as an equaliser. It can be a foundational pathway to social mobility, offering a ladder out of disadvantage for many. This understanding brings us to the logical and highly promising concept of a Social Mobility Premium. Much like the Pupil Premium, this initiative could further catalyse our efforts to ensure that every individual, regardless of their socio-economic background, has access to the opportunities that education can provide. 👇🏾
