Raising the bar: Positive Futures' guide to accreditation - June 2005 This guide offers a step by step guide to practitioners who are considering accreditation as part of their work with young people in non-formal educational settings. The approach is not just accreditation for accreditation sake but of ensuring that everything from 'planning' through to 'completion' is an opportunity for practitioners to engage with young people as well as enhancing young peoples' personal and social development. The guide clarifies what can be a confusing context and array of awards and directs you to sources of further information and assistance. Date: Mon Jun 27 10:57:41 BST 2005

Arts interventions In terms of prevention, arts programmes range from projects in Learning Support Units and Pupil Referral Units, which address the problems of non-attendance and exclusion through the arts, to participation in, for example, Youth Inclusion Programmes or Positive Activities for Young People (PAYP), aimed at reducing anti-social behaviour

Arts for All: 6 Year Review
http://artsed.issuelab.org/research/listing/arts_for_all_6_year_review

Summary/Abstract:
In September 2002, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors adopted Arts for All: Los Angeles County Regional Blueprint for Arts Education, a strategic plan to restore arts education -- in dance, music, theatre, and the visual arts -- to the 1.7 million students in Los Angeles County's 81 school districts. The Arts for All Executive Committee, with more than 100 partners and managed by the Los Angeles County Arts Commission, leads this effort. The initiative, having completed its sixth year, has made great strides.

there's even a podcast ;-)

Family Learning & Wider Family Learning (impact on behaviour & crime)

LSIS Wider Family Learning
http://skillsforfamilies.excellencegateway.org.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=89&Itemid=101

Nuggets:
Although it talks about material linked to FLIF, it does mention how these connect to major themes touched upon by other policies:

The materials link to Every Child Matters outcomes and focus on four areas:

* community cohesion (including neighbourhood participation, community safety (especially issues around guns), gangs and knives)
* health and wellbeing (including sport, healthy eating)
* arts and culture (including encouraging reading, museum work)
* sustainable development (including global trade, sustainable living).

Awareness of positive activities needs to be improved
http://www.cypnow.co.uk/news/ByDiscipline/Youth-Work/login/925862/

The government is urging local authorities to improve awareness of positive activities in their areas to increase participation following research published this week. Aug 09 - 2009

The research , commissioned by the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF), said low awareness of available activities, peer pressure, lack of self-confidence and lack of time all acted as barriers to positive activities. Researchers questioned 144 young people aged 13 to 19 for the study, which found that despite barriers when young people did participate in activities they were enjoyable, allowed them to socialise, and helped them to feel good. Children's minister Dawn Primarolo said:...

Nugget:
we could connect "awareness" - with FLF and perhaps look at some youth activities? - urban dancing, wot else? ;-)

Ofsted report praises family learning classes

Children who take part in learning sessions designed to engage their parents as well, show improved communication, confidence and interpersonal skills, according to an Ofsted report

Chief inspector, Christine Gilbert, said: "Family learning can transform the lives of children and parents, helping them to break the cycle of deprivation and educational underachievement."

nugget: pp 7. on the virtual scroll page, and also pp. 25 printed at bottom right-hand side of the page (were it to be printed) has fab table of factors that influence vulnerability and propensity for crime. Which knock me down with a feather corresponds to deprived areas and typical factors you would expect.

Eliz - this been kindly donated & pasted from one of Rach

Two ideas that I have for 'quick grants' are:

Awards for All: http://www.awardsforall.org.uk/england/index.html which funds small-scale projects (up to £10k) and funding for story-telling projects, which are particularly aimed at families of disabled children: http://www.mla.gov.uk/what/programmes/setting_pace/festival%20of%20storytelling

I guess you could also see what local grant-making trusts would be able to offer funding?
