We invite colleagues to join NATT+ in a presentation to the Childrens' Commissioner, Maggie Atkinson

Colleagues,

NATT+ represents a large number of Practitioners and teachers currently working with schools, settings, Gypsy Roma Traveller families, children and young adults at the cutting edge of Gypsy Roma Traveller Education.

We are keen to 'bend the ear' of the Children's Commissioner Maggie Atkinson and present them as a NATT+ professional view which we think will carry more weight.

More importantly however is the opportunity to get the young people you work with to go on line to feed back their views as GRT learners - much more powerful!! We feel this is could be a key driver in the campaign to include GRT learners in the strategic plans of the Government and provide them with a potent 'voice'.

Please send any comments to us via the NATT+ website - - http://www.natt.org.uk/contact and we will collate them into a strategic response for Maggie's attention.

We urge you to get your families to have a real say in the issues facing them in education today.
