Learn more about this module This online learning module has been developed by the Chartered College of Teaching and funded by the Charity of Sir Richard Whittington (part of the Mercers’ Charitable Foundation). The module is specifically designed for school leaders and focuses on developing inclusive school policies for refugee students. The aim of the module is to combine research evidence with high quality practice so that school leaders can learn from the best available evidence and discuss their approaches and experiences with peers. The module is split into five sections: Section 1 introduces you to the online learning platform and allows you to connect with other participants on the module. Section 2 provides some contextual information on refugees and asylum-seeking people, from both a global and a UK perspective, as well discussing definitions of refugee education, its aims and its purpose.
