Brief bio: tell us a few facts about you & your interest in digital aspects of work with young people
I provide strategic support and advice to the National Executive of the Confederation of Heads of Young People’s Services (CHYPS), in carrying out its role as the organisation representing the heads and senior managers responsible for ensuring the effective delivery of all elements of Integrated Youth Support Services.

I champion at a national and local level, the value of a youth work; campaigning on behalf of all those who deliver, manage and commission it and articulating its importance to young people’s learning and development.

I support and equip leaders to meet the challenges of redesigning and commissioning services. For example, through the promotion of the Youth First Mutual with FPM and the “Services for Young People VFM Self Assessment Tool” developed jointly with the Audit Commission

I compile, manage and resource the organisation’s responses to Government consultations and policy which impacts on young people and young peoples’ services. To represent the organisation at strategic level with key partners including the Department for Education, the National Youth Agency, the National Connexions Network, the Association of YOT Managers and the Association of Directors of Children’s Services

Using Creative Assessment Tools for Practitioners at Attlee Youth & Community Centre, London E1

April 11, 2013 from 9:30am to 4:30pm
BackgroundOne of the challenges of assessment processes with young people is how to secure their involvement and active participation. Only too often assessment can become something that is ‘done’ to young people (or a form that needs  to be filled in), rather than a dynamic process that puts them at the centre, something theyare involved with and have some ownership over. The assessment tools called ‘CAF Cards’  and ‘Road Sign Cards’ have been developed with young people to work with the…See More
