OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, 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.
