Summer greetings from the team at MESH
Our new Going to University feature is now fully embedded as an Information Resource for Learners (IRL). This is the first of a series of resources designed to be accessed directly by learners or those advising learners – it provides a range of information on going to university, including links to local universities with special access programmes for ESOL learners. Look, for example, at the below contribution to our resource provided by University of Sheffield. Again, please do provide feedback for us on this resource and how it is working for you – you will find a feedback form on the resource page.
In our Going to University Information feature, University of Sheffield staff tell us how to access ESOL and other support at the University.
Please give us feedback on features of our website! You will find forms like these on many of our pages, or mail us at info@yhmesh.org.uk
LE+ features a new learning resource for use in the classroom on cooking and food, launched in May 2023. In addition to this, watch this space for an exciting range of new resources that will be coming soon from our Exploring and Belonging project in Hull.
Visit the staffroom for information on jobs, and for information on MESH activities. Read Angela’s Out & About focusing on the work that she and Safina have been doing in classrooms in Leeds and Rotherham, working with learners to reflect on their learning journeys and explore progression pathways.
We hope you have also noticed the recent refurbishment of our Training pages. We have done some work on these pages to make them more accessible. Visit the training pages to find out about upcoming training opportunities across the region and beyond.
Lastly, we are delighted to announce our second Regional Networking Meeting of the year. This will be held in Sheffield Central Library on July 10th 2024, 10.30 until 2pm. Please join us to network with colleagues from across the region, discuss new approaches to delivering ESOL in the context of the promised curriculum review, and enjoy a nice lunch in the company of friends old and new. As always, this event is free. See HERE for more details and to register.
