We are pleased to announce the publication of the twin resources ‘Engaging with LGBT and migrant equalities’. These resources are designed to facilitate an exploration of LGBT and migrant lives and, more generally, an engagement with issues of equality and diversity in diverse educational settings:

1. the adult ESOL classroom (see ‘Activities for the ESOL classroom’ toolkit)

2. frontline services working with youth groups and in community or informal education settings (see ‘A youth and community practitioner toolkit’)

You are warmly invited to take part in this event to share ideas and experiences of how to use the resource, and to discuss good practice in engaging with equality and diversity.

The event will be of interest to: a) ESOL practitioners and those involved in ESOL provision; b) frontline services working with youth groups and in community or informal education settings; c) practitioners working on staff training within both frontline and second tier organisations.

This event is free to attend, but spaces are limited, so booking is essential.

Tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided.
