I'm really enjoying the @voice21oracy conference, and how fantastic to see former Leeds PGR @KhawlaBadwan as an invited panel member talking about unheard student voices @Education_Leeds
During a panel on listening without prejudice @KhawlaBadwan talks about the hierarchy of voice. “We amplify the voices of children who say things we want them to say”. To what extent do we do this in P4C? @voice21oracy

We were delighted to welcome HRH the Princess of Wales to our campus.
The Princess attended a lecture from the Childhood Studies degree programme before sitting down for a conversation with the programme leader and final-year students about the #ShapingUs campaign.
