Drop-in session themes

Armed Forces Friendly Schools (AFFS) Cymru

Led by the SSCE Cymru School Liaison Officers, these drop-in sessions will help schools in Wales understand how they can understand the experiences of Service children, engage with the Armed Forces community and embed support for Service children by working towards achieving your AFFS Cymru bronze, silver and then gold status. We will provide an overview of the requirements, share examples of good practice and answer questions to help you understand how to implement items on the checklist.

Service children voice

Led by the SSCE Cymru Participation Lead Officer, these drop-in sessions will help schools in Wales understand how they can listen to Service children in order to support them in the most effective way. We will help you understand the importance of actively listening to your Service children, share examples of good practice, discuss opportunities for Service children ambassadors and support you in setting up a Little Troopers club (Primary) or Forces Life club (Secondary).

Funding for supporting Service children

Led by the SSCE Cymru Programme Manager, these drop-in sessions are available to support schools and local authorities in Wales with accessing funding to support Service children in education. We will raise awareness of relevant grant funding streams, share examples of good practice, answer questions, promote resources and discuss collaboration opportunities.

SCiP Alliance Thriving Lives Toolkit

Led by the SSCE Cymru School Liaison Officers, in collaboration with the SCiP Alliance Engagement Manager, these drop-in sessions will help schools in Wales understand how to use the SCiP Alliance Thriving Lives Toolkit and other resources. We will provide an overview of the Toolkit, share examples of good practice, explain how the Toolkit links to the Armed Forces Friendly Schools Cymru status and answer questions to help you understand how to utilise these resources.
