Gypsy, Roma, and Travellers (GRT) in Education: GRT History Month Event

Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts

The focus of this event is upon ‘GRT in Education’; young learners, academic enquiry, teacher support and training, the benefits of continued education, and advocacy. The programme we have created is truly collaborative, input and contribution from secondary school students, university undergraduates and postgraduates, academics and practitioners, Local Authorities, charities, community representatives and NGOs. This multi-media event will include performance, music, film, awareness training opportunity, academic and student exhibition, workshops, and information stalls. We hope you will leave enthused about what you can do to be more inclusive, enthralled and more informed about the richness this community brings to our society, and mindful of some of the engrained prejudices that exist that we can all help to challenge to enable a more level playing field for current and future learners.The GRT in Education event will have an informal ‘gallery-style’ feel offering an exhibition space, information stalls, film, networking, and free buffet available throughout the duration of the event. However, there are some significant timings:
•	14.10: Welcome talk and contextual introduction 
•	14.30: Theatre performance and live music
•	15.00 &amp; 15.30: GRT ‘awareness’ workshops 
•	16.00: Forum discussion on academic representation 
You do not have to commit to the entire day and can attend the sessions that are most relevant to you.
