The GEM Manifesto 1.      Our heritage is not about things - it is about people and how they relate to things 2.      Heritage encompasses all sciences, technologies, environments and the arts 3.      Heritage is essential as the cradle of everyone’s tomorrow 4.      The multiple narratives of heritage deserve respect 5.      Everyone, regardless of age, ability, creed, gender, ethnicity or orientation, has a right to know about and be at ease with heritage 6.      All interaction with our heritage involves learning 7.      We stand for all realms of learning whether experienced in cognition, attitudes, behaviours, skills, styles, values or preferences 8.      Our development of heritage learning skills and techniques is and must be a perpetual excellence. Only learning organisations can truly promote learning Does yours truly learn?

  21. Opportunities • The revised National Curriculum • http://www.education.gov.uk/schools/teachingandlearning/curriculum/nationalcurriculum2014/ • The probable conversation • The reliable teacher and why they visit • The perpetual need • The weakness of classroom opportunities • Inter-school competition

  22. The task ahead • Coping with different governances • Getting famous • Creating circles of excellence • Seducing cohorts • Meeting new AND established needs • Being perpetually enthusiastic • Crystal balls vs Rear-view mirrors

  23. Past futures • NCs come and go • So do recessions • Resilience comes from within • Teachers always need pretexts & excuses • It helps to provide these • The customer is always right… but may need a nudge!
