Projects
DECSY carries out a wide range of project work. These are three of our current projects.
Gender Action – Gender Equality in Schools
Gender Action is an award programme which promotes and supports a whole-school approach to challenging stereotypes. Tiered progression levels put gender equality at the heart of policy and practice, recognising those striving to ensure there are no limits on young people reaching their full potential. Register your nursery, school or college as a Gender Action supporter and book a place on one of our 'Gender Equality in Schools' workshops.
The Schools Linking Programme
The Schools Linking Programme in Sheffield and Rotherham builds links between schools throughout the school year. Pupils enjoy meeting and learning together and the process helps pupils to explore identity, become comfortable with difference and build connections with their local community. We would love to have you on board for 2024/25 - contact info@decsy.org.uk for more information.
Sustainability and Climate Change – developing a whole school approach
Book your FREE training place now! How is your school responding to the climate and nature emergencies? Large numbers of young people globally do not believe their education is preparing them for a changing and uncertain future. The Department for Education’s ‘Sustainability and Climate Change Strategy’ wants all schools to appoint a Sustainability and Climate Change Coordinator and to put in place a Climate Action Plan by 2025. Our online course and Climate Friendly Schools whole school approach can help.
