As you know the workshop comprises a number of sessions, during which you and your colleagues will be given an opportunity to express yourselves, to reflect, to learn, and to share.  \nWe hope you find the workshop beneficial, and we hope that this opportunity to forge relationships and create solutions with others who have the same concerns as you, helps to make your professional life healthier and safer going forward.  \nYour facilitator will give you a copy of the following:  \n• Teachers’Safety and Security in South African Schools: A Handbook  \n• Teachers’Safety and Security in South African Schools: A Participant Workbook  \nThe handbook is a user-friendly reference which gives you access to information on your rights and responsibilities as an educator in the South African schooling system.The handbook also introduces ways of thinking about how to prevent potentially violent situations at school, and it offers a number of strategies to help deal with those potentially violent situations.  \nThe workbook contains a number of activities drawn from the handbook that you will use in the workshop, either individually, in pairs or in groups.  \nPlease make sure that you bring both books to all the workshops.  \nPreparing for the workshops  \nWe suggest that you read the handbook, Teachers’Safety and Security in South African Schools: A Handbook, before you begin, as this will allow you to be prepared and therefore have your concerns, suggestions and opinions ready tobe raised with your facilitator and your colleagues.  \nYou will be given homework to complete between workshops. Usually these are activities that help you reflect and consider a variety of situations you may have faced, or your response to certain situations. We urge you to complete the homework.  \n4 Teachers’Safety and Security in South African Schools: A Participant Workbook  \nCourse outline  \nAs you see below, each workshop is three hours in duration. Half an hour of this will be used for tea or comfort breaks.  \n\n| Workshop 1 | Understanding Violence | 3 hours allocated (including comfort breaks) |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n\n\n| Workshop 2 | Roles and Responsibilities in a Whole School Approach | 3 hours allocated (including comfort breaks) |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n\n\n| Workshop 3 | Rights and Responsibilities of Educators | 3 hours allocated (including comfort breaks) |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n\n\n| Workshop 4 | Risk Within the School Environment | 3 hours allocated (including comfort breaks) |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n\n\n| Workshop 5 | Strategies to Manage Potentially Violent Situations in School | 3 hours allocated (including comfort breaks) |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n\nYou will see the following icons in your workbook.  \n\n|  Outline\u003Cbr> Outcomes\u003Cbr> Working alone (for example, filling in a form) |  Pairs (often, turning to the person next to you)  Group (these will be set up by the facilitator)  Plenary (when you come together for a discussion) |\n| --- | --- |\n\nAbout this course 5  \nWorkshop 1  \nUnderstanding Violence  \n","cbCaivICSZys5M2f","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivICSZys5M2f","pdf",743341,54,"English","# How to Use this Guide\n# Workshop 1: Understanding Violence\n# Workshop 2: Roles and Responsibilities in a Whole School Approach\n# Workshop 3: Rights and Responsibilities of Educators\n# Workshop 4: Risk Within the School Environment\n# Workshop 5: Strategies to Manage Potentially Violent Situations in School","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this participant workbook?\",\"answer\":\"It supports educators participating in a workshop series on teacher safety and security in South African schools, using activities drawn from the course materials.\"},{\"question\":\"What topics are covered across the five workshops?\",\"answer\":\"The workshops cover understanding violence, roles and responsibilities in a whole school approach, educator rights and responsibilities, risk within the school environment, and strategies to manage potentially violent situations.\"},{\"question\":\"How are workshop activities typically organized in the workbook?\",\"answer\":\"Activities can be completed individually, in pairs, in groups, or in plenary discussion, and the workbook also uses recognizable icons to indicate the learning format.\"}]","Teachers’ Safety and Security in South African Schools - A Participant Workbook | PDF",1792379315,136]
