For starters, one off projects - however 'regular' are not

enough - communities need ongoing engagement@gavinsmart #ukedchat

20:03:19 JanP65 @eylanezekiel Very good point! #ukedchat

20:03:45 GeorgeEBlack

#ukedchat schools should be as open as possible, I'mafraid they should probably give before they can expect toget.

20:03:55 Tech_Stories

#ukedchat A lot of companies have CSR policies andhave commitment to local community projects, a lot will

focus on young people

20:04:12 AmyG2191

#ukedchat Students learn from real experiences,including those of experts. Any difference between actualvisit and virtual visit??


Secondly, schools are mostly terrible at communication -to parents, but also further outwards . must be 2waychannel @gavinsmart #ukedchat

easiest way is to make it worth their while - embeddingwork experience, regular work placements for vocationalcourses etc #ukedchat

20:04:50 ICTEvangelist

Survey parents and community asking them what skillsthey have and invite them to get involved in world of workdays #ukedchat

20:04:57 asober

#mygrandadvideo is a great example of members of society engaging in education http://t.co/2Y6w4NSl Howcan we engage more people #ukedchat

20:05:05 SwayGrantham@GeorgeEBlack definitely, people won't make the effortuntil school does #ukedchat

20:05:19 JanP65

How about tying outdoor learning activities to improvingthe community i.e. gardening and planting projects?#ukedchat

20:05:37 gavinsmart

@eylanezekiel Check out @priorycsa using twitter really

does work at enaging the parents, students andcommunity. #ukedchat


#ukedchat @ON_School is a proposal for a school withcommunity ties 'baked in' - and intergenerational learningas standard

Topic reminder: ‘How could we encourage members of the local community to engage with education?’ with@gavinsmart #ukedchat


Organise a community festival of learning during school

hols or evenings with staff offering learning opportunities#ukedchat






#ukedchat I realise that this is an ideal, but havingattended a community based school, and now working inboarding, The benefits are good.


@GeorgeEBlack #ukedchat Saw an article recently where

once a wk parents were invited to stay for first part of thelesson to read stories

20:06:59 JanP65

@eslweb Agreed. Start off with school taking the lead in acommunity meeting? Pupils as leaders? #ukedchat

20:07:01 gavinsmart

@ICTEvangelist I love this idea. This could be an openinvitation. Why at the start of the year. Bring someonein…or virtually #ukedchat

20:07:35 KempsterD

Using phrases as we do such as 'hard to reach parents'doesn't help. Lots of people are 'scared' of schools due toown experience. #Ukedchat

20:07:36 gavinsmart@JanP65 Great at giving back to the community!#ukedchat

@ukedchat @gavinsmart we encoruage parents by

having a open eveing in September #ukedchat


Fundraise and seek sponsorship from local business /council to build community hall / club on school site for building community #ukedchat

20:08:39 gavinsmart

@eslweb I totally agree. What can the school offer tomake the local community join in with education.#ukedchat

20:08:41 eslweb@JanP65 We did a little project retuning people's TVs for digital. Big success and people very happy. #ukedchat

20:08:41 SwayGrantham @ecarsontc @GeorgeEBlack are you assuming if theyare not at these clubs they'll be with parents? Not





roaming the streets? #ukedchat

20:08:53 nickotkdIV#ukedchat also have time in the mornings where they areencouraged to come into class.


#ukedchat - worth looking at @Innovation_Unit stuff on

School as Commons - what this means is the school is alearning space for all

20:09 asober

@gavinsmart @ICTEvangelist someone told me about ascheme to trade voluntary hours of work at school withwork from others #ukedchat...


@ecarsontc #ukedchat difficult to do when your parentsare working 7am till 4, school can be the only stability.Helps behaviour too.

20:09:05 nicoladarling78

@ICTEvangelist Great to use the skills of parents and the

community! I think they are an untapped gold minesometimes #ukedchat

Is it just about making money for the schools to use howthey wish or can the community offer expertise?

#ukedchat20:12:54 GeorgeEBlack

@iteachyear1 that's a good point, a lot of people hatedschool and don't want to back in #ukedchat

20:12:58 asober

@KempsterD coffee tables are ideal for discussions!Could have member of community chatting bout their experience on each table #ukedchat


@cherrylkd #ukedchat Love the idea of showcasing thechildren's work! The children should make the cakes anddrinks too!

20:13:25 nickotkdIV

#ukedchat tshowcase work so parents get to see what isgoing on without having to come into school. some feel alittle frightened!

20:13:30 chrisleach78 ooh im actually around for #ukedchat

20:13:34 KempsterD

How many schools have big metal fences around them?Mentally saying 'Keep Out' break down the barriers.

Design the people in... #Ukedchat

20:13:39 eslweb

@gavinsmart I think if the school thinks about money firstthen they won't build up any goodwill and schools reallyneed that. #ukedchat

20:13:40 asober @ICTEvangelist @gavinsmart the world of work daysidea! #ukedchat


@JanP65 #ukedchat Saw a great community learningproject where school got an old house due for demolitionwhich they restored...

20:13:52 NQTnewbie

Invite local traders and trades into school to talk about thework they do in the community #ukedchat

20:13:52 JanP65

@nickotkdIV This is a good idea but found parents werereluctant to help out as had to go through the disclosureprocess #ukedchat


As a boarding school we suffer from 'town and gown'syndrome a little, anyone got any ideas on breaking thatperception? #ukedchat

20:14:0

2 ecarsontc

@GeorgeEBlack so why have kids in the first place then?

#ukedchat

20:14:03 nickotkdIV#ukedchat look at DMU and their DMUSquaremileproject!


Community service 4 students as part of learningprojects. Work in care homes, tidying up unusable space2 make community area etc #ukedchat

20:14:37 JanP65

@nickotkdIV I like that idea. I always stop to look at thedrawings from local schools on the boards at Tesco!#ukedchat

20:14:40 davidhunter #ukedchat agree with most of what's said abouttransparency and communication.as a parent,I want to





know what my sons up to and how to help


#ukedchat As part of my, everything should have anaudience theme next year, the children's work should bepresented to parents/community!

20:14:52 JimmV1983

@iteachyear1 sounds great! Do you ever wonder if wedistance ourselves too much from parents? #ukedchat

20:14:54 eslweb

@GeorgeEBlack My School helps out gardening at thelocal Church and plays at the town Rugby club etc#ukedchat

20:14:56 nickotkdIV

@JanP65 very true #ukedchat. maybe have them comeinto school in holidays etc then pub;lise who has helpedat the beginning of term.

20:15:4

2 NQTnewbie

Rename the school for a day or days. Turn it intosomething else, art gallery, factory, restaurant, workshop,

shop! etc #ukedchat

20:15:43 ICTEvangelist@asober @gavinsmart #ukedchat ah cool. No it wasn’tbut it sounds a great idea!

20:15:48 JanP65

@nicoladarling78 This could be done in so many differentways! Blog, tweets, Facebook page as well as displays,presentations etc #ukedchat


#ukedchat Do our concerns about security and 'childsafety' form a barrier to real engagement? technology canonly do so much

20:16:07 gavinsmart @NQTnewbie This is excellent idea i feel that the usualvisitors to school are usually not trades people. #ukedchat

20:17:30 JanP65

@nicoladarling78 A board would still be good as not all

people in the community will be have computer knowhow... #ukedchat

20:17:47 nickotkdIV@nicoladarling78 @JanP65 good way of course is theblog. easy and painless for many parents! #ukedchat

20:18:03 NQTnewbieLocal people come and teach for a day, school takeover!#ukedchat
