Speakers
Consultant Elizabeth Lynch will speak about the development of A New Direction as an organisation and how we are working with young people to influence who we are and how we talk about what we do. Elizabeth was instrumental in the conception of Tower Hamlet’s Summer University, the development of the Roundhouse and more recently Sorrell Foundation’s ‘My Place’ programme.

Arts College Manager, Jon Nicholls and students from Thomas Tallis School, a Creative Partnerships Schools of Creativity, will share their approach to using social media as a way to engage students in thinking about creative learning.

Deputy Head, Judy Gemmell and five Creative Leaders (year 7 to 10) from Islington Arts and Media School, Creative Partnerships Schools of Creativity, will present their programme to train 40 students to develop leadership skills to equip them with the ability to make lessons more collaborative, creative and exciting whilst still delivering the curriculum.

Lewisham’s Young Mayor, Jacob Sakil and members from the Lewisham Young Advisory Panel will contribute to a wider panel discussion looking at some of the challenges around selection, representation and adult agendas which frame youth voice programmes.
