Holiday Club - Oxford, United Kingdom - Global Education and Development CIC

Description

Global Education and Development CIC (GED)
We seek two enthusiastic Holiday Club Leaders.

This is a pilot programme in the Oxford area for the 2023 summer half term holidays with the aim of providing an extended programme during the 2023 summer holidays.

GED's sister company, Education Globale et Développement asbl, has over 20 years of experience in delivering activities and education which promote peace, tolerance, and greater understanding in Belgium and France.

We wish to bring our experience and guiding philosophies to the UK.


GED's Guiding Principles

• Provision of Peace and Values education programmes to help children and young people develop and better understand the importance of inner peace and good will towards others; and to develop approaches and skills to enable them to build more harmonious relationships with peers, families, and society.
• To create a safe environment where children learn how to form healthy relationships and life skills, such as teamwork, active listening, selfdiscipline, and confidence.
• To address bullying and other social issues by helping young people to better understand their own emotions and feelings, nurture empathy, and how to become peacemakers.
• To help migrant families and individuals to socially integrate, grow, become empowered, and contribute to their new communities.
• To promote community cohesion by targeting conscious and unconscious biases and prejudices people might hold toward one another.
• Development and provision of Global Citizenship programmes to enhance a more global identity within individuals and greater appreciation of diversity; and to help all people develop an appreciation of service to the community, society, and all humanity.
