| Key Stage 3 See Me See You
For schools wishing to access the Schools’ Community
Relations Programme with their partner school.

Duration: 4 sessions of three hours
Cost: As per funding programme
Group size: 60
This programme is specifically designed by the Verbal Arts
Centre to purposefully address the needs of Key Stage 3 pupils
engaging with Community Relations work.
In addition to meeting the key objectives of the Schools’
Community Relations Programme supported by the Department
of Education this work has been designed
to fulfil the statutory requirements of both the Key Stage
3 National Curriculum for Citizenship Education, and the Local
and Global Citizenship strand of the Key Stage 3 Learning
for Life and Work.
See Me See You explores issues of cultural identity, diversity
and conflict. The programme has six distinct activities which
can be used either individually as
a one off session, or as a series of lessons which allows
pupils to explore and enhance their knowledge, understanding
and attitudes towards their diverse and
unique community.
A trained Verbal Arts Centre facilitator will deliver the
programme to pupils from your school and your partner school.
Participants will be given the opportunity to
explore and express their cultural identity, see how differences
in tradition, culture and belief can lead to conflict, celebration
of diversity and the value of respect for cultures other than
their own.
Please note the Key Stage 2 and Key Stage 3 programmes are
designed to access funding through the Schools’ Community
Relations Programme funding.
Please contact Sarah Lapsley, Education Services Coordinator
at the Verbal Arts Centre for advice about this.
