Watch this Space 3

engage is delighted to announce year 3 of the Watch this Space programme - a training and placement programme for teachers and gallery educators.

Applications are invited from galleries and gallery educators in England (Deadline 15 May 2006). There are two parallel programmes as follows:
1. Gallery Educator Secondment Programme (England only)
A funded opportunity for gallery-based and freelance gallery educators to take part in a school-based secondment, with additional training from engage, to develop skills and knowledge in working with schools with an aim of developing new partnerships with ‘non-visiting’ schools in the future.

2. Gallery Placement Programme for Teachers (England only) - Applications must come from Galleries – not schools or teachers
A funded opportunity to offer teachers from ‘non-visiting’ schools placements in your gallery, with the aim of creating new links between your gallery and their school, developing teachers’ skills and knowledge, and increasing galleries’ experience of creating effective partnerships with schools.

Further information about both programmes is in the attached documents. If you have questions about the programme or your application, please contact Penny Jones on 01273 477978 / 07748 302397 or Holly Garrett at engage on 020 7244 0110.
