Take Over Challenge

18 November 2016 (by keira burnsall (kburnsall))

Children know best!

On Friday 18th November Fagley Primary school children took part in the National Take Over Challenge. Children from Reception to Year 6 swapped roles with the staff at school throughout the day. Three pupils from Year 6 started the day by replacing Mrs Burnsall and delivering the Celebration Assembly. In each class lessons were panned and delivered by different children. Children had to plan their subject carefully and ensure it was pitched at the appropriate level for their classmates. Children spent their lunch time assisting with telephone calls in the office, running errands and helping the lunchtime supervisors out on the playground. The children did a fantastic job and thoroughly enjoyed their take over day. We cant wait to take part again next year!Takeover Challenge 2016 What is the Children's Commissioner's Takeover Challenge? Takeover is a fun, hugely successful and exciting engagement project which sees organisations across England opening their doors to children and young people to take over adult roles. It puts children and young people in decision-making positions and encourages organisations and businesses to hear their views. Children gain an insight into the adult world and organisations benefit from a fresh perspective about their work.
