Every year the Family and Childcare Trust conducts a
survey to gather information about the cost of holiday
childcare and its availability across Britain. The data
– collected from local authorities – makes it possible
to monitor changes in the costs and availability of
childcare during school holiday periods and identifies
differences in provision across the regions and nations
of Britain. This year we have also undertaken an
additional survey of parents, to help us understand their
experiences of holiday childcare. The results of both
surveys are included in this report which complements
our annual survey of childcare costs that we release
every spring.
This years’ Holiday Childcare Survey, the 13th in the
series, is released at a time of heightened debate
around the cost of childcare among politicians, as well
as the configuration of the school year. While some
parents are lucky and have access to high quality
affordable holiday childcare, our results show that
many families face a holiday childcare lottery of high
costs and patchy provision. Despite the legal obligations
to provide enough childcare for working parents, only
27 per cent of English local authorities and 6 per cent in
Wales have enough provision for this group of families
and these gaps have increased rather than decreased
since the implementation of the Childcare Act 2006. All
this takes a toll on families, with nearly one in five (17
per cent) of parents in our survey taking sick leave over
the holiday period in order to provide childcare.
With the 2015 target date for the Millennium Development Goals and Education For All fast approaching, the
issue of out-of-school children is more important than ever for countries in West and Central Africa. Since
2000, the number of out-of-school children was on a downward trend, however, since 2008 these figures
have not moved; the burden for countries in the region has increased dramatically for they are now home
to more than a third of the world’s out-of-school children. Based on the latest household surveys from 21
countries in the region, this study reports that there are nearly 32 million children of official school age who
are not attending either primary or lower secondary school. A further 17 million school children who are at risk
of dropping out could be added to this figure. These statistics, which show the magnitude of the situation, fail
to take into account the hardships associated with this situation for families and the huge loss for the region
and society as a whole.
This study aims to shed some light on the scale and mechanisms of exclusion in the region, and to bring to
the fore a number of tools and resources that are available to promote the educational inclusion of all children.
To enable all children, even the most marginalized, to have access to basic quality education, we need to
think creatively and make use of all the resources at our disposal. It is imperative that the fight against all
forms of exclusion is coordinated and concerted. Indeed, without mass mobilization of all stakeholders and a
comprehensive strategy, it will not be possible to effectively address all forms of school exclusion. However,
only a truly inclusive education system has the capacity to build a knowledge-based society, which the region
urgently needs for its future. The international community has a decisive role to play in supporting the efforts
of these countries to develop an inclusive education system.
The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has a specific responsibility to encourage and help all children
deprived of education. The main priority, in collaboration with all stakeholders, remains the enrolment of all
out-of-school children as quickly as possible. There are just two years left for us to achieve the collective
commitments to which we agreed in 2000; we must therefore have the strength and determination to take
the most appropriate actions that will enable all children to fully exercise their right to a quality education.

Bridging the Gap- A study report on impact of covid-19 on education of childr...communicationsatmash
The study report is prepared by Atmashakti Trust, an organization working for the socio-economic and political empowerment of the most marginalized communities. During the pandemic time, children especially from rural areas suffered the most as schools were closed to contain the spread of Coronavirus. Atmashakti conducted a study recently to understand the scale of impact on children's education due to the school closure and suggested recommendations for the government to take policy actions.
A recent ruling has put Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole (BCP) Council under scrutiny as they are mandated to pay £8,000 in compensation to a family following a significant educational oversight.
Finance and Administration ensure the efficiency to support the organization as a whole to focus on its core business and thus attain its targets through the provision of finance and administrative services.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mark Johnson, Superintendent of Public Instruction
Eric C. Davis, Chairman of the North Carolina State Board of Education
FROM: Charles Perusse
SUBJECT: New COVID-19 Allotment and Public School Budget Flexibility
In response to the COVID-19 crisis, Governor Cooper declared a state of emergency in North
Carolina and has ordered all K-12 public school buildings closed through May 15. A state-led
Education and Nutrition Working Group, Local Education Agencies (LEAs), and Independent
Public Schools (charters, lab schools, regional schools, and the Innovative School District) are
developing plans to support children and families while schools are closed, including providing
school and community-based child care, school nutrition, and implementing remote learning.
To assist LEAs and other public school units in supporting students during this unprecedented
time, Governor Cooper has provided financial flexibility and relief to address unanticipated
needs resulting from COVID-19, including remote learning, school nutrition, cleaning and
sanitizing schools and buses, protective equipment, and child care. Using his authority under
G.S. 166A-19.40, Governor Cooper directed the Office of State Budget and Management to
repurpose existing funding streams, as well as authorize the realignment of funds within the State
Public School Fund.
First, a new $50 million flexible allotment for all public school units to address COVID-19-
related expenses will be established at the Department of Public Instruction. This allotment will
be funded with unused FY 2018-19 carryforward funds, currently unspent FY 2019-20 Summer
Reading Camp funds, and funds from the State Emergency Response and Disaster Relief Fund.
Additionally, LEAs have been granted the following flexibility to utilize existing allocations to
serve the immediate needs of students during the State of Emergency:
• Textbooks and Digital Resources and School Technology allocations may be used for
devices, online subscriptions and training for instructional personnel for digital and
remote learning.
2. • Flexibility is granted for the Transportation, At-Risk Student Services, Disadvantaged
Student Supplemental Funding, and Low-Wealth Supplemental Funding allotments to
permit expenditures associated with school nutrition, school and community-based child
care, cleaning and sanitizing schools and buses, protective equipment, and remote
learning.
The Department of Public Instruction, in consultation with the State Board of Education, is
drafting allotment policy guidance for State Board approval. Technical guidance on the broad
categories of permissible COVID-19-related expenditures and how districts and Independent
Public Schools should code these expenditures will be forthcoming from the Department of
Public Instruction Division of School Business.
Lastly, I want to thank you, the staff of the Department of Public Instruction, and Members of
the Board of Education for the collaborative effort in providing assistance to our schools during
these challenging times.
