The course is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Housing \u2013 level 3 (GCSE equivalent) Award in Resident Scrutiny <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/glo.li\/Z6MOgx\">http:\/\/glo.li\/Z6MOgx<\/a> <\/strong>. The course \u00a0takes around 5 days over 8-12 weeks and pupils will work with politicians, senior managers, residents and employment training unit participants. This would therefore be a very diverse working group which could significantly enrich the experience of the young people involved.<\/p>\n<p>Initial discussion between Alan, David and Yvonne suggested that this opportunity might enhance and enrich\u00a0existing course work in Modern Studies. Yvonne will also consult\u00a0school pupil council representatives about the opportunity\u00a0\u00a0and alert colleagues in a pastoral or careers advice role.\u00a0Participation in this course offers valuable chances to challenge and apply a range of\u00a0transferable and higher order skills such as:\u00a0development of text analysis, interpersonal skills, team working, and a culminating task which will require pupils to collaboratively evaluate a range of data and apply systems thinking to their suggested action plan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In\u00a0early September 2014, Yvonne McBlain of Falkirk Council Education Services\u00a0met\u00a0 with Alan Christie, Community Engagement Manager and his colleague David Love of Falkirk Council Housing Services to explore potential partnership working.
