Notas del editor
In the notes summarise below the aim of the presentation (who is it targeted at, what outcomes do you hope to achieve and how, what content will be included)NB: these notes are to provide guidance to the CNE staff member making the presentation – they are not to be shared with the audience.Once you have edited/amended your presentation and added details below of who it is targeted, please share your personalised presentation with your colleagues by sending it to david.vandervelde@children-ne.org.ukOverall aim: Eg…To generate new business for CNE, primarily through spot purchase of services.Target group:Who is the presentation for.Eg. School cluster managers in East NewcastleTarget Outcomes: (add/amend as required)Raise awareness of CNE (who are we, establish credibility, describe our work in general, give basic info about specific services we offer)Generate discussion about audience needsIdentifyhow CNE could meet those needsNext step- how do we take this forward - who needs to follow up with who (this would usually go back to HoS at CNE for discussion - can we generate specific leads to follow up (get names, job titles, phone numbers, email and name of the referrer (Have we got enough info to be able to follow up with a named person eg. ‘I was speaking to x… who asked me to phone about y… specific problem in school(s) and they asked me to get in touch with information about our ….. Programme(s).’ Use the feedback sheets that go with the presentation. Please return these to david.vandervelde@children-ne.org.ukContent: Depending on time constraints - it is good practice to begin by asking the participants to introduce themselves. What are the issues they face? This will help you focus on the issues that are important and get dialogue going so that at the end of the presentation they will engage.Following the info in the schools brochure which you will give out at the end.
To give out at end of session - (brochure and Powerpoint, quick reference guide, feedback/follow up sheet, marketing plan)
What will be covered today. Is there anything else that people would like to hear about ? *nb. The word ‘service’ is used here to describe a service available for purchase such as a ‘friendship group’ or an ‘Option 2 intervention’ as opposed to a ‘service area’ such as families and parenting or young people or WEYES.
Who are the people who can commission the services that you offer?Use flip and elicit answers from group.Eg. GP consortia, school academy chains, Behaviour Improvement Leads in LA’s, Attendance/Attainment Leads in LA’s, HT meetings, Governor Services in LA’s, CP Team managers,
In 2011 Children North East, with the support of the Beatrice Webb memorial trust undertook a piece of work with hundreds of children and young people from across the NE, help ing them to document what was good and bad about the places they lived.The resulting collection of thousands of photographs represents the collective views of our CYP. An exhibition of the photographs will be touring the region during 2012.
National Equality Panel**, set up by the government in 2008. According to the study, Britain is more unequal than it was a generation ago; one measure of inequality it examines suggests that, by 2007-8, Britain had the same level of income inequality as existed in the post-war years.Described by the Prime Minister as "sobering", the report states that "it matters more in Britain who your parents are than in many other countries" and describes the importance of "the long arm of people's origins in shaping their life chances... literally from cradle to grave." Among the areas covered in the report is education up to, and beyond, GCSEs. In particular:There is a large difference in 'school readiness' and vocabulary scores between three year old children from the poorest 20% of families and those from the richest.This vocabulary gap is even wider by the time children are five.There is a strong link between living in a disadvantaged area and having special educational needs, learning disabilities and/or social, emotional and behavioural difficulties.The attainment gap between children receiving free school meals and those who do not continues to widen until they reach 14 (before narrowing very slightly up to GCSEs).Eligibility for free school meals is the single biggest factor hindering a student's performance at GCSE.***Even disadvantaged students that do perform well are less likely to go onto higher education at all, let alone to a Russell Group university.Once at university, they are less likely to achieve a first or 2:1.Consequently, more work is needed "to improve the educational attainment of poor children in general, and substantially to improve the staying on rates after 16 of low-income children in particular."
Some people don’t like the idea of being sales people…We are all representatives for the organisation and we all have a part to play in selling services.. Doesn’t mean we have to be like this guy.You have a role to play in speaking to the contacts we mentioned earlier.. What is the message you need to get across? – the hard sell..
This is what we are about – Fulfil potential and Overcome disadvantageIf you are successful in selling our services – more children and YP will benefit from fulfilling childhoods, will reach potential.Inequality will be overcome.. Nb check out conference info on CNE website. – Richard Wilkinson, DD, TS.
This is what we are about – Fulfil potential and Overcome disadvantageCNE has always been good at listening to the voices of CYP. Participation is embedded right across the organisation.The photo project means we can speak authoritatively abut the issues faced by CYP in every part of the region.Because we are a vol org the research shows we are a much more trusted name than LA social services. We are better at engaging with/listening to the hardest to reach.We can adapt more quickly and innovate to meet needs -our services are more flexible than LAWe have 120 years of experience.. We know what works where when…It costs more NOT to use our services

What opportunities do we have to get the CNE message across Eg casual conversations with colleagues from other agenciesStructured opportunities Elicit through discussion.- can you think of a conversation that you have had that has produced.. – - Intelligence eg identifying a gap that someone is looking to fill, funding that is available for a specific issue - a specific lead where someone has expressed interest in a service we offer.What happenedLearning from what has worked in one area and adapting to anotherStructured opportunities and events egSENtral.Marketing events.. SNEWill hand over to Lysa in a moment to look at some techniques and skills that can help you turn those conversations into contracts.
What are the issues you face n school now - Changes in staff/resources?What services do you think would help.?Please ask everyone to complete the feedback form in their packs. Include an email/phone number to join the CNE mailing list.

Consulted on Grahem Allen review – Early intervention.Children North East Fathers Plus has developed the Family Man Schools Programme, which has been successful at bringing men into their children’sschools to support their learning in and outside the classroom. The programme has run in over 60 schools across the region and engaged over 1000 men and theirchildren, helping build supportive partnerships between schools and family men.Children North East works with national, regional and local male inclusion champions to develop effective models of addressing inequality and includingMen, both as employees and service users.When dads support their learning in and outside of the classroom, children tend to be more settled at school, better socialised and have better learning outcomes.
