Who Are My Learners? • We will be delivering to adult offenders in prisons across Europe. • Our learners will have a variety of skills; little or no prior learning; and may not be able to read or write. • Previous experience in the Arts will not be a barrier to achieving this qualification. • We will be using a variety of Arts to achieve the LEARNING OBJECTIVES of the SEPE certificate. • It is our job to excite and motivate the learners who may have had serious problems with formal education.

  14. What Am I Delivering? • How the learners achieve the learning objectives is up to you. • You might consider; group work, individual work, paired work, and using a variety of activities to complete the project and assessment criteria. • All work must be pre-planned and written in an ASSIGNMENT BRIEF that outlines what you intend to do against the assessment criteria. • You will be delivering to the learners in your preferred art form, it’s a great opportunity to share your detailed knowledge of your profession. • Much of this will be covered in the formal training days later in the project.
