What Shapes Learning? An Inclusive Education Taster Session

Join us for an engaging taster session exploring what helps children and young people to learn, and what can sometimes create barriers to learning. Through short activities and a real-life learner scenario, you will consider how relationships, wellbeing, identity, and environment shape educational experiences.

There will be a range of ways to take part, including thinking, writing, listening, or sharing ideas, so you can participate in a way that feels comfortable. This session offers a valuable introduction to studying Education at University of Gloucestershire and the inclusive principles that underpin our courses, while inviting you to reflect on the kind of educator you may wish to become.
