Resources
Our resources aim to support work with children and young people to explore their identity, celebrate diversity, promote community, champion equality and develop dialogue. Thanks to the generosity of the Pears Foundation we are able to offer these resources free to download but please do respect the intellectual property.
If you are part of the Linking Programme, there is now a password protected Linking area called Schools Linking Project Resources. Please contact your local facilitator for details.

Parent Linking
During the summer term 2018 6 areas of the National Network engaged in work with parents and communities. We believe that bringing together parents of children who are part of the linking programme will enable them to better support their own child’s experience of linking by having more confidence to respond to their child’s curiosity, questions and reflections on identity and other issues which may emerge during the linking journey. We know that there are not many opportunities in society for adults to meet other adults who they otherwise wouldn’t meet and parent/ community linking can enable this. We’ve captured some of the things we learnt in the Parent Linking resource you can download here. Parent Linking resource

The Digital Knowhow secondary resources are written to help students explore 'truth, lies and the internet' and learn skills for deconstructing propaganda.
