Many Local Authorities, some will be showcasing the impact of the work we have done with them

Elizabeth Jarman Training Ltd invite practitioners, policy makers and strategic leaders from local authorities and organisations to spend a day exchanging ideas, speaking, listening and reflecting on the potential of the Communication Friendly Spaces™ approach.

Elizabeth Jarman Ltd CFS MarqueeWe are setting up our very own Communication Friendly Space™ in a bespoke marquee structure in the grounds of Kelmarsh Hall, a beautiful stately home in Northamptonshire.

This will host showcases of projects where the CFS™ approach has been applied to support a range of agendas from SEAD, ECAT, MABD, re-modelling spaces to EYP accreditation.

In addition to the showcases, we will be hosting a number of facilitated discussions throughout the day on topics including; for example connecting design and pedagogy, a whole setting approach, and boys’ preferred contexts for learning.

Indoor and outdoor environments are explored with reading gardens, the CFS™ Home Context Exhibition, and CFS™ outdoor trails.

Travel to and from Exchange is provided by luxury coaches picking up from a number of venues for a one hour journey to the venue. During this time refreshments will be served, an introduction to CFS™ will be delivered and onboard trainers will advise you in planning how you will maximise your day.

Participants will discover new insights into the importance of the spaces in which they communicate across the age ranges.

This is a hands-on, interactive opportunity, and the aim of the day is to explore how CFS™ can support ongoing work.
