Learn about local authority schemes, funding, and training for delivering creative education workshops.
Thursday 30th Jan 2025, 11am-1pm
Building 41, Cowes, FREE
An opportunity to learn about local authority schemes i.e. HAF, Wrap Around and Early Help, understand what additional training is required ie Ofsted, safeguarding, and funding streams available that align with these projects. These local authority programmes ensure children have access to childcare before and after school and, for those children who are eligible access to holiday childcare.
This will be a practical workshop aimed at helping you understand the requirements for delivering creative education workshops. Designed for IW Creative Network members, it covers local authority programmes, safeguarding, and funding streams. We’ll hear case studies on how other creatives have successfully delivered educational workshops, and Community Action will provide support on organisational governance. There’ll also be time for coffee and networking after the session.
