Gypsy, Roma, Traveller and Showman (GRTS) awareness training (school-based or online)

Would you like to have a better understanding of the barriers which effect Traveller families in accessing education and have an improved awareness of how to engage effectively with these communities?

Travellers are the largest ethnic minority in Devon and yet they have some of the lowest attainment levels.  61% of Traveller pupils will leave school before they finish year 11, with the majority citing bullying, communication and lack of understanding by educationalists as the main reasons.

This training session will help give you a better understanding of:

• Legislation, attendance coding and definitions
• Stereotypes and misconceptions
• Racism and reporting incidents
• Cultural Awareness – History and current culture
• Inclusion and communication in schools
