BILINGUAL / VET ACTION PLAN | Mediateca de EducaMadrid

Hello, my name is Andrea and I'm a secondary school English teacher at Comunidad de Madrid State Schools. 00:00:02

This is my first digital project to upload to Mediateca and I'm doing so after completing a course titled 00:00:09

Leadership and Management Skills for Bilingual Coordinators, led by Rachel Kelly. 00:00:16

We were asked to develop an action plan to carry out in our schools. 00:00:24

Now, I'm not a bilingual coordinator, and I believe next year I will be teaching vocational education and training in English. 00:00:31

So who are the stakeholders in my project, in my action plan? 00:00:41

Well, they're teachers, students, administrators, non-teaching staff, VET employers, families and education authorities. 00:00:45

So I've taken all these into account to develop my plan. 00:00:56

And what about the issue, the driving question that leads my action plan? 00:01:02

Well, last year I noticed a discordance between students in sección and programa. 00:01:10

And this gap is possibly due to occur also in vocational training. 00:01:17

So I really want to work towards creating a diverse and comprehensive society and I want to do this starting with school and using English to do so. 00:01:23

So I want to bring everybody together and try to bridge that gap. 00:01:35

My vision therefore is to bridge the gap between vocational training and secondary school students within a bilingual school community. 00:01:41

what are the actions the specific concrete actions that I've decided to 00:01:51

take well let's have a look first of all we were taught to start small and get 00:02:02

bigger so the first thing I'm going to do is conduct a survey to assess that 00:02:11

student's situation within the bilingual school community I will also choose a 00:02:17

a vet skill. I am going to choose that of early child care aid so these are the future 00:02:28

assistants who will work with early childhood children in schools and I will teach them 00:02:35

English. I'm going to create a solid teaching plan and going to use English for specific 00:02:42

purposes and we're going to create an online working platform so we can keep track of all 00:02:48

our work. In order to put my action plan into action, I will have to hold meetings with 00:02:55

vets and English department members and of course a head team to ask for permission 00:03:08

and I'll have to check that the resources are enough. How about the actual thing I'm going to 00:03:13

do? I want to prepare an open day to share the vet skill in English, what we do with the school 00:03:22

community and within that early childhood care we will carry out three workshops for everybody 00:03:30

who wants to join in one will be about action songs for toddlers for little children another 00:03:36

one will be on storytelling and another one will be on how to change a nappy now the big day the 00:03:42

big moment will be to actually celebrate the open day and i have to remember to take pics of the 00:03:53

moment to track success and as far as success is concerned and results that's a major part of the 00:03:59

action plan so I'm going to check how many participants there were I'll carry out a survey 00:04:09

after the action plan and also regard the possibility of extending the project to other 00:04:16

skills. So we'll see what feedback we get from the education community. Now, there are always 00:04:25

issues we can face, but as we were told at the course, the important thing is what we do about 00:04:33

it. So let's see what some of these issues could be. There could be people not interested in the 00:04:39

project, low participation, people thinking this is just silly, and also things like laziness, 00:04:45

envy, low self-esteem etc. So how can we deal with this? Well luckily Rachel gave us some great 00:04:54

ideas in the course. First of all it's paramount to have a strong vision and mission and to be 00:05:02

motivating and to have intervention strategies with your team. Also to be smart, being specific, 00:05:08

being able to measure your action plan and being realistic. You have to promote your project and 00:05:16

also remember to keep smiling. Finally we have to have a look at the indicators of success. How do 00:05:22

we know if the action plan was successful? Well I'm going to check out how many participants there 00:05:32

were both on the open day and also on the online platform we created. I will conduct a survey 00:05:38

before and after to see if there were any significant changes and also I'll check what 00:05:45

feedback I got from students, colleagues, families and the school community in general. 00:05:53

Another important thing is to celebrate success. So you can always have a little party with students, 00:06:05

drinks and cake with colleagues. Remember to keep going and to congratulate oneself 00:06:11

and being grateful. And we can also give prizes for the best nappy changer. 00:06:16

Okay, well thanks very much for watching. 00:06:23

This is my first digital project and I hope it gets me through to the next round. 00:06:25

Have a great holiday. Bye! 00:06:30
