Well, far from it, we have in fact been quite busy - just not in terms of updating this. In April 2011 we alerted you to the fact that Gene Payne was taking an Assistant Principal role at a Harris Academy, with a view to becoming a headteacher. In January this year he took on the role of head at The Causeway School in Eastbourne and is loving the challenge. http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/weve-been-quiet-for-a-while/ http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/weve-been-quiet-for-a-while/ Current projects Tue, 26 Feb 2013 16:33:38 +0000 Now any school or group of schools can set up their own student commission drawing on the work of Harris. We have produced this online toolkit which includes guidance, tips and ideas as well as hundreds of resources for schools to adapt.

And, after two years of enquiry, the commission has published its ‘new design for learning' (Download file). We are hugely proud to have been part of it. So much that’s positive has already happened, for everyone involved, but the best work of the commission is yet to come as the academies set out to fulfil the seventeen entitlements for all learners and teachers. “The most significant skill I have gained from the commission is the ability to question things rather than accept them at face value.” Matthew Gavin, Year 10, Harris Academy Merton The commission is launching the new design for learning at the Whole Education ‘Whose Curriculum Is It Anyway?’ event on 16 May 2011.]]> http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/harris-student-commission-a-ne/ http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/harris-student-commission-a-ne/ Current projects Academies collaboration learning Mon, 16 May 2011 00:31:07 +0000 As some of you will know, things have changed a little for GoddardPayne in the past month or so. For some time Gene has been considering a move back into schools – a chance to put all he’s learnt and experienced in the past seven years into practice – and as of two weeks ago he has taken on the role of Vice Principal at Harris Academy Purley.]]> http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/changes-at-goddardpayne/ http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/changes-at-goddardpayne/ Current projects Academies change Mon, 09 May 2011 21:23:16 +0000 New Philanthropy Capital on an approach to demonstrating value for money in early years settings is proving to be a brilliant piece of work. It involves creating a toolkit and process to help the locality teams involved in the Radical Efficiency in Early Years programme look carefully at the costs of their new service ideas and compare this to the existing service based on unit costs. We're testing it in Bradford, Reading and Knowsley in the next couple of weeks so will see if they're as wowed by it all as we are. ]]> http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/excited-by-radical-efficiency/ http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/excited-by-radical-efficiency/ Current projects local authority radical_efficiency vfm Tue, 08 Feb 2011 10:42:37 +0000 We're really chuffed that the practical guide 'Using social challenge prizes to support people powered innovation' (Download file) has been published by NESTA. It's been a while in the making but Caireen has enjoyed writing and creating it with the fantastic Vicki Purewal and Kerry McCarthy. The prize approach offers a completely new way of funding specific outcomes and supporting community-led innovation so we're looking forward to seeing how others respond. ]]> http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/a-guide-to-social-challenge-pr/ http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/a-guide-to-social-challenge-pr/ Current projects challenge prizes innovation NESTA Tue, 14 Dec 2010 22:39:24 +0000 We've joined forces with Julie Temperley to be the Learning Partner for the NESTA and Innovation Unit Radical Efficiency project. This programme is working with six local providers of early years children's services, front-line staff and communities to transform locality-based services so that they significantly improve outcomes for young families and demonstrate a 30+% reduction in costs within three years. We'll be working with the team and the projects to tell the story of the innovation process and the impacts of the new services. ]]> http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/radical-efficiency-in-early-ye/ http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/radical-efficiency-in-early-ye/ Current projects innovation Innovation Unit learning local authority NESTA Thu, 14 Oct 2010 20:12:13 +0000 Today we're running a session with NEF and NESTA for the co-production practitioners network. We're working with them to consider how they want the network to develop over the coming year, in particular focusing on the specific value they want it to create for members. It's been strange but good to be thinking hard about networks again. ]]> http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/coproduction-practitioners-net/ http://www.goddardpayne.com/we-do/current-projects/coproduction-practitioners-net/ Current projects co_production facilitation networks Wed, 08 Sep 2010 08:02:20 +0000 We have been working with the Harris Student Commission on Learning for over two years now. This new publication brings together what the commission has learned since it published '12 early ideas about learning' in October 2009. Students have designed and undertaken practical enquiry projects with teachers and have visited High Tech High, San Diego, and Charter Schools in New York. We are proud to have worked with them to write this digest of their findings.
