OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Webinar Lunchtime Series: Two children and maths – Improving attainment for children in care
Care-experienced children’s prospects in school and beyond are particularly harmed if they have difficulties in reading and mathematics. Previous trauma and neglect mean that they are often significantly underperforming. Early support in mathematics is vital, but many teachers feel less confident in helping these vulnerable children in maths than in literacy. Rose will use the stories of Skye and Ronan, both aged 8, in different schools and circumstances, to discuss the children’s experience of maths in school, and to think about how to break the pattern of underachievement in this important area of the curriculum.
