The aim is provide educators with good practices at schools implementing the Child-Friendly/ Effective School (EFS) framework in the Eastern Caribbean Area, which they can consider for possible implementation in their own classrooms. In the Eastern Caribbean, the implementation of the Child-Friendly School (CFS) / Effective Schools Framework (ESF) first started in 2007 with the main focus on positive behavioural management. This was primarily done in an attempt to reduce the use of corporal punishment by teachers and to address issues of interpersonal violence among children, which were becoming a concern for regional governments. Recognising that a holistic approach must be taken to improve the psychosocial environment for students, the CFS model in the Eastern Caribbean has been expanded to include the following: Healthy and Health Promoting Practices –including teaching Health and Family Life Education Student centred Education School Leadership and Management Safe, Protective and Nurturing Environment To date more than 50,000 students in the Eastern Caribbean are being exposed to CFS / EFS practices and the numbers keep growing.

  • From Lord Berkeley 07710 431542, [email protected] Simon Case Esq CVO Cabinet Secretary Cabinet Office, SW1
    From Lord Berkeley 07710 431542, [email protected] www.tonyberkeley.co.uk Simon Case Esq CVO Cabinet Secretary Cabinet Office, SW1 12 August 2021 Dear Simon, HS2 – Ministers misleading Parliament. I wrote to you on 9th July requesting you to investigate allegations that ministers have failed to comply with the Ministerial Code by misleading parliament. I have not had the courtesy of any substantive response from you and it appears from a letter received from Bernadette Kelly, Permanent Secretary at the Department for Transport, dated 4th August 2021 that you requested her to respond on your behalf. I find her response wholly unacceptable; clearly she is seeking to defend her ministers’ and her department’s reputation. However, I repeat my request to have a response from you as Cabinet Secretary. In this situation, I sought the advice of one of your permanent secretary predecessors (and a former private secretary to two prime ministers}, Sir Tim Lankester KCB, who is perhaps best known for his work in upholding the integrity and independence of the civil service against overbearing ministerial interests in linking overseas aid to arms sales. Sir Tim comments to me in relation to HS2: ‘Dear Tony, Like you, I think the continuing deception over the costs of HS2 is an absolute disgrace. We had come to expect this from ministers, trying to protect their own backs and trying to protect the project's credi- bility against mounting evidence that it is a gigantic waste of the nation's scarce resources. But what I find utterly horrible, and in some ways even worse, is the Permanent Secretary's complicity in this de- ception.

Title: Heritage education — Memories of the past in the present Caribbean social studies curriculum: a view from teacher practice Issue Date: 2019-05-28 Chapter 6: The presence of Wai’tu Kubuli in teaching history and heritage in Dominica 6.1 Introduction Figure 6.1: Workshop at the Salybia Primary School Kalinago Territory, Dominica, January 2016. During my stay in Dominica, I had the opportunity to organize a teachers’ workshop with the assistance of the indigenous people of the Kalinago Territory. Although the teachers interact with Kalinago culture on a daily basis, we decided to explore the teachers’ knowledge of indigenous heritage and to challenge them in activities where they could put their knowledge into practice. We then drew animals, plants, tools and objects that are found in daily life in the Kalinago Territory. Later on in the workshop, we asked teachers about the Kalinago names that were printed on their tag names. Teachers were able to recognize some of these Kalinago names, and sometimes even the stories behind them. In this simple way, we started our workshop on indigenous history and heritage — because sometimes the most useful and meaningful learning resources are the ones we can find in our everyday life. This case study took place in Dominica; the island is also known by its Kalinago name, Wai’tu Kubuli, which means “tall is her body.” The Kalinago Territory is the home of the Kalinago people.

    OFFICIAL Permanent Secretary Home Office 2 Marsham Street SW1P 4DF www.gov.uk/home-office 03 June 2021 Rt Hon. Meg Hillier MP Chair, Public Accounts Committee House of Commons London SW1A 0AA Dear Chair, RE: Recommendation 1 Forty-Eighth report of the 2019-2021 – Digital Services at the Border I am writing to you in relation to recommendation 1 of the Forty-Eighth report of the 2019-2021 session of the Public Accounts Committee report into the Digital Services at the Border, which was published on 12 March 2021. The recommendation asked that I should review the major technology programmes within the Home Office portfolio and write to the Committee within three months with my updated assessment of each programme’s progress alongside the impact I expect each programme to have. The Home Office is currently responsible for nine major technology programmes that fall within the scope of the Government Major Projects Portfolio. These complex and high value programmes are delivering for significant numbers of user groups across multiple organisations, often replacing legacy systems that are critical to day to day services. The programmes are key to maintaining essential services or delivering the Government’s priorities. As such they are subject to a rigorous internal and external scrutiny regime and each programme benefits from regular independent assurance from the Infrastructure and Projects Authority. In November 2019 we stood up a programme of work to improve the overall delivery confidence of our portfolio of major change. This work aligns with our One Home Office Transformation programme and focuses on: 1.

  • The Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London SW1A 2HQ United Kingdom 2 March 2021 Dear Chancellor, We Write
    The Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London SW1A 2HQ United Kingdom 2 March 2021 Dear Chancellor, We write as the Presidents of the four UK National Academies, ahead of this week’s Budget, to urge you to ensure that the recent uplift to UK research and innovation at the 2020 Spending Review is preserved by confirming that our association to Horizon Europe will be provided through additional funding. A real term decrease at this time would send the wrong signal to a sector that will be key to a successful recovery. The Government’s success in ensuring UK association to Horizon Europe, the EU’s flagship research and innovation funding programme, is strongly welcomed by our communities. Research and innovation is global and the value of international cooperation is evidenced by the rapid global response to COVID19 leading to the successful and ongoing roll out of vaccines. This first, vital step towards continued cooperation is positive news for patients, the public and businesses in the UK, Europe and beyond. However, the agreement to associate to Horizon Europe came after the 2020 Spending Review and we are now concerned that association may be funded from the existing BEIS R&D allocation, which you set out in November last year. Up until now, UK participation in EU Framework Programmes has not been funded in this way and the likely additional cost of association in 2021/22 would more than account for the projected increase to BEIS R&D. This would decrease the money available to fund R&D projects and risk halting investments in research and innovation activity that, once lost, will take time to rebuild.
