To ensure that there is enough time for personal networking and informal discussions it is helpful if members who have specific news/developments to share would let Janet know in advance of the Learning Exchange, and if appropriate perhaps they could write a few lines about these so that they can be shared on the PEN blog. Please send any copy to Peter Humphreys at personalisededucationnow@blueyonder.co.uk

On the 31^st March Josh’s service will close, with many other services on that day, due to cuts in funding for public services. At this Learning Exchange, three days later, Josh will reflect on his learning and practice of supporting families over a period of eight years. He will share the insights he has gained from his experiences of working with schools and other agencies, and will explore the relationship that has developed between the corporate and the domestic in recent years. Finally, he will consider what will be lost by the passing of his team and what can be held onto and nurtured for the future.
