Want to learn more about Relationship-based learning theories and how to effectively put these into practice in your school? This workshop is designed for leadership teams to be introduced to the powerful Relationships First programme and understand how Relationships First can support cultural capability in your school.

Relationships First is developed in collaboration with education experts and Emeritus Professor Russell Bishop, which includes his newest work; “Teaching to the NorthEast”.

Relationships First supports educators to build effective relationships with students, with a specific emphasis on marginalised students. The programme is based on over a decade’s worth of research into the ways that classroom power relationships and traditional teaching methods have failed to support indigenous learners and looks at the factors necessary to transform their schooling experience from one of failure, to one of success.

In this workshop we will unpack key relational pedagogies that ‘create a family-like context for learning’ in the classroom/school by focusing on:

· Rejecting deficit explanations for learners’ learning;

· Caring for and nurturing the learner, their language and culture;

· Voicing and demonstrating high expectations;

· Ensuring that all learners can learn in a well-managed environment so as to promote learning;

· Knowing what learners need to learn.
