IMPACT ON LEARNERS
Creating the conditions for learners to be heard, included and able to act
The longer-term ambition is to improve children’s and young people’s experiences by changing how future teachers design curriculum, relationships and participation.
01The learner impact pathway
- Teachers recognise youth experience and learner difference as curriculum knowledge.
- Creative and dialogic approaches provide multiple ways to participate and communicate.
- Learners encounter greater voice, choice, representation and belonging.
- Emotion, relationships and wellbeing become part of learning.
- Learners rehearse perspective-taking, collaboration, critical reflection and responsible action.
Intended learner outcomes
- Voice, agency and meaningful influence
- Wellbeing, emotional safety and belonging
- Creativity, imagination and self-expression
- Inclusive participation and recognition
- Critical, democratic and anti-racist understanding
- Collaboration, empathy and ethical dialogue
- Confidence to question, contribute and act
An evidence boundary
These are intended outcomes, not yet measured impact. Country pages will update this account as school-based evidence develops.
Learner evidence
A statement created during an England youth session foregrounds a central challenge for future practice: participation must include young people whose voices are less readily heard. Longer-term school-based impact is not yet claimed.
