Stereotypes about academic abilities certainly impact performance. As a teacher, I introduce diverse role models, challenge traditional roles, and foster discussions about stereotypes. Creating an inclusive environment where all children feel valued, using gender-neutral language, is very important.
Just to build on your post that this is a major global inequality, affecting over 700 million people. Children in poverty face numerous social challenges, including inadequate housing and lack of education. To address this, students can raise awareness, volunteer locally, and carry out fundraisers.
It’s great to see your school working with Doras to support refugee children. Implementing their culture into classrooms and forming buddy systems are steps that I really like to hear. Apart from that, creating cultural events and bringing together multilingual resources can help to promote inclusivity and understanding among students. Keep up the great work
The initiatives you mentioned to promote SDG 13 are impressive. Consider adding hands-on activities like school gardens and energy audits. Partner with local businesses and organize community clean-ups. Make use of educational technology and creative fundraisers to enhance student engagement and awareness. These additions will deepen their understanding and commitment to climate action.
The structure of your lesson, from brainstorming to writing and illustrating, ensures that students stay involved and can express their creativity in multiple ways. I also like how you’ve put together visual aids and illustrations to help with the writing. This way can make the activity more enjoyable and accessible for students who might find traditional writing tasks challenging.
Using EAL resources is definitely beneficial, but ensuring that children feel secure and part of the community is important as well. Engaging the school in initiatives like local toy appeals not only provides immediate support but also helps build a sense of solidarity and compassion among all students. Keep up the great work!
Giving children the chance to play with a variety of toys and stationery can open up their creative minds and help them develop a broader range of skills. It’s great that you’re aware of these issues and are thinking about ways to address them in the classroom.
Being a Green School Coordinator for over fifteen years, your hard work is very commendable. I can relate as I have been our green schools coordinator for the last three years. Bringing these activities into various subjects, like maths, art, English, geography, and science, shows a comprehensive and creative approach to teaching about sustainability and climate action. The idea of using case studies and documentaries to engage students is particularly effective in making the issue more relatable and real.

By allowing them to focus on numeracy without getting bogged down by literacy challenges, it empowers them to learn more effectively. We encourage children to use this feature in 5th and 6th class in my school and upon review children have responded well with positive feedback!

Preparing and delivering assessments with AI is another valuable use. The ability of AI to include assessments in lesson plans seamlessly is impressive and can save teachers a lot of time. As you mentioned, mastering the art of prompt wording will take practice, but it will undoubtedly become an integral part of modern teaching. I have myself used ChatGPT to help with planning, and it has really amazed me with its level of detail!
From reading your submission, I agree that DE also promotes empathy by highlighting the challenges faced by people in different parts of the world, which can inspire children to help those less fortunate. Introducing these concepts early can in reality shape children into active individuals who engage in democratic processes and advocate for social justice. Well done!
The Yellow Flag Programme sounds like a wonderful initiative to promote cultural diversity. We will be working towards getting it in the coming school year. Becoming a School of Support will be a significant step towards making your school a welcoming and inclusive place for all students, especially refugees, migrants, and other marginalized groups. These efforts are key in teaching both staff and children the importance of giving sanctuary and embracing diversity.
Raising awareness and taking action at both local and global levels is needed to combat poverty and homelessness. By trying to identify and support vulnerable students, schools can make a significant difference in their communities and contribute to the broader goal of reducing poverty worldwide.
