This is Me! Creative Project Education Pack
The Living Assessments project Team at the University of Kent want to develop an Education Pack with teachers centred around ‘This is Me!’ which was a creative project that explored creativity and identity: https://www.kent.ac.uk/whats-on/event/78138/exhibition-this-is-me-children-and-young-people-s-creative-voices
The pack aims to support children and young people to understand who they are; to celebrate differences; develop empathy and respect; build confidence in sharing ideas; and express themselves creatively.
We have funding to support the pack’s development.
If you are interested, please email a one-page outline showing your suggestions for the education pack to the Project Officer Monique Petit m.petit@kent.ac.uk

Teachers CPD: Writing a useful UCAS reference and the application process
In this session for teachers and advisers, we explore what is useful for universities in a UCAS reference, including extenuating circumstances, and how to best support your students with their personal statements. We will provide an insight into what happens to applications when they reach a university, including Clearing. Please contact Ruth at outreach@kent.ac.uk to find out more and book.
